Inheritance IV and Women's Rights in Antiquity

May 2011, Analysing the inheritance laws as laid out in the Koran. The text in the Koran is so bad and so unclear that scholars, experts and electronic calculators all divert from the non-sensical Koranic texts. This shows that the Koran can't possibly have been conceived, designed and written by a god, who is supposedly perfect, but stems from humans living hundreds of years ago.

While I am in the region I look at the Rights of Women at the time and compare that to claims made by Muslim apologists.

I do not criticise humans who sincerely believe a god exists and has issued these laws. It just shows they are believing a book is true in spite of proof that shows this book was written by other humans.
