Reason for my thinking is that in the 'koran' it drops a lot of Judeo Christian names and concepts from the earlier 'J.C.' writings . I think that the 'koran' is a Fiction [or satans religious book] from the beginning and was written as a response of superiority over Jewish and Christian religion !! By the way , I am not very religious , just a nominal Christian from birth and this is just a comment !!
When Muhammad first fabricated his religion and before he had any followers, he believed his following would come from the Arab Jews and Christians.
He tailored the Koran to attract them, complete with Old and New Testament stories and characters.
When the Jews and Christians rejected Muhammad, his Koran turned against them calling the Jews apes and Christians guilty of the unforgivable sin.
The Koran is all over the place on most issues. It all depended on Muhammad's situation when he made up the verses.
