      And – if I understood that correctly – that prophets may have made errors ant a final prophet which is sent directly from heaven (instead of chosen from men) will correct them. So plotholes in the written text are accepted as a misunderstanding between the words of god and the human prophet who reads and interprets them.

        See, there is an easy way out of all of this, but the Almighty does not usually take the easy way out, it seems.

        It is kind of like how some players come up with these personal 'victory conditions' to make video games more challenging. My character in Fallout 2 could have worn some armor at least once, but I decided against it.
