I'm not sure where you got the list you are quoting from, but here is a link to a pretty good discussion of whether disbelieving parents should be treate with love: http://answering-islam.org/Quran/Contra/disbelieving_parents.html.  There are several passages that suggest that they should, and several that suggest otherwise.  I don't see how they can all be true.  In particular, it explains that the Arabic word "auliya" means more than just "protector".  It also implies friendship and affection -- otherwise sura 10:62 refers to "protectors of Allah", which would be silly.

 

Actually I made reference to a couple of suras in my previous message that suggest a more fundamental contradiction, though I mangled the message a bit.  As you have asserted in several other discussions, according to the Quran God gives us free will and holds us responsible for our choices; and yet sura 14:4 says that "Allah makes whom He pleases err and He guides whom He pleases", and sura 10:100 says that "And it is not for a soul to believe except by Allah's permission."  So if I don't believe in Allah, is that my doing or His?  If I end up in Hell as a result, is that my fault or His?

 

I actually did just that and the sites I found had lists of verses that were interpreted incorrectly but no contradictions.

 

For example, one list stated that these are a contradiction:

 

 

and

 

 

 

Or:

 

79:27 What! Are ye the more difficult to create or the heaven (above)? ((Allah)) hath constructed it:

79:28 On high hath He raised its canopy, and He hath given it order and perfection.

79:29 Its night doth He endow with darkness, and its splendour doth He bring out (with light).

79:30 And the earth, moreover, hath He extended (to a wide expanse); and   2:29 It is He Who hath created for you all things that are on earth; Moreover His design comprehended the heavens, for He gave order and perfection to the seven firmaments; and of all things He hath perfect knowledge.

I'm not even sure what the contradiction is suppose to be here. That one mentions the earth first and one mentions the heavens first, but neither mention which Allah created first, just that He created both....

 

 

 

Perhaps you could point out what you feel is a true contradiction in the Quran.

What the bible writers did was to make Jesus looks like a hypocrite:

 

hypocrite
      n 1: a person who professes beliefs and opinions that he or she
           does not hold in order to conceal his or her real feelings
           or motives [syn: hypocrite

 

1) How can Jesus tell his followers to love your enemies yet call his enemies by degradable names and condemned them to hell? Is that not a hypocrotical act?

 

2) btw, Christians believe Jesus was fully man and fully God (which was a contradiction in terms), and what Jesus was reported to have said in the bible would be construed as 'divine' commandments. The bible says Jesus  calls the Pharisees 'hypocrites' (Matt 6:2,5,16) but his action, according to the bible writers, makes him a hypocrite as well.

 

3) You do not see such contradictions in the Quran.
