This is often the kind of problem one encounters with unreasonable religionists who start on a faulty premise like “it’s true because it’s written in bible/koran” then use it to support every proposition. If you ask “who wrote bible/koran?”, they avoid the question, make more propositions and use the same faulty premise of “it’s written in bible/koran” to support them. It’s only humorous if not tiresome https://www.logicallyfallacious.com/logicalfallacies/Circular-Reasoning

A type of reasoning in which the proposition is supported by the premises, which is supported by the proposition, creating a circle in reasoning where no useful information is being shared. This fallacy is often quite humorous.

Someone wrote a guide to how to annoy a rational person. They said, “argue circular arguments are valid, because circular arguments are valid”
I must have read that 20 years ago and it’s still hilarious. 🤣

The page you linked compares the Bible/ Qur’an to a Nigerian prince scam.
Good luck with this one. Religion is like a merry-go-round. People are programmed to just stay on the horse, no matter what common sense tells them. You can’t rationalize with them fast enough before they are whipped back around into the never ending abyss of circular justifications.

Lol. That’s a good example. I’ve noticed there are many other religions apart from the notorious two of christianity & islam, such as nigeria, “africans”, continent n.k. It’s an abyss I’m going to avoid by all means
