I am no expert but have heard interpretations that indicate that it was. The Koran seems to be much like the old Test. where interpretation by religious poobahs is the thing that folks believe. I am a member of no religion because of this. I worship and honor God in private and without confusion of interpreters. I also avoid the political BS that religions seem to get themselves intertwined with. I feel that is out of their job description.

My mother-in-law professes the same thing, while also claiming to be a Christian.

My question to you: How do you know who God is? Who told you that there is a God? How do you know (a) how to communicate with God, and (b) whether or not God wishes to hear from you?

I'm not trying to disparage your views at all, please don't be insulted by these questions in the least. I _am_ pointing out to you, though, that your beliefs would still qualify as being "a religion," whether or not you wish for them to be.
