Good day Pandora
This is not my opinion, of course we return to Holy Quran for what we say, but I am afraid you forget the fact that there are Christians as well think the same way (Bible is re-written).
Can you please give me one verse in you Bible confirms one of these:

Where did Jesus mentione Adam and the Original sin (ancestral sin)?
Where does Jesus say "I came to be sacrificed for humanities sins"?

It is one of your central doctrines, but we can't find Jesus saying this. All what you do is stretching those verses that you believe point to that. It is like the backbone of you religion along with other doctrines, so it must be declared in a very clear plain text without concluding it from other verses.

And concerning your advice "Your time would be better trying to convince people of the truth of the Quran not by proving want went before false, but on its own merit. ", do not worry we are doing our best, here on this precious and significant website "ebnmaryam.com" and the entire web there are plenty of articles and researches everybody can read, you can find scientific, social, economical dimension of Quran and many other articles who confirm the truthfulness of Holy Quran in many points of view, but what we can do when some refuse to be neutral and read with an open mind?

Peace to all

As the Quran brings a different message then you have to claim the previous one was changed. However, the onus is upon yourself to prove this to the satisfaction of the followers of the previous scriptures. This you have failed to do and so Judaism and Christianity still go on regardless.
I think you over emphasise the written word, as muslims put high importance on the Quran as a written word. This is not as important for Christians who see themselves as part of the living Gospel that is Christ. That's why your claims of textual corruption and changes by whoever do not make much difference. I would go as far as to say you are wasting your time. Your time would be better trying to convince people of the truth of the Quran not by proving want went before false, but on its own merit.
