Feb 29, 2012 at 16:53 | comment | added | stoicfury | This answers the inverse question: Are the "divinely inspired" books of today written by or directly inspired by a God? It doesn't answer the OP's question, i.e. whether any book could theoretically be constructed such that it would convince a rational person that it was written by a deity. So while your point is reasonable it's been downvoted because it's not really an answer to the question. :( | |

Clearly that wasn't written by God, so it must have been written by man. But it's awfully similar to the Quran. | |
