I’ve already said that nothing is 100% certain...you need to allow for minor errors. No scholars or experts would risk their reputation by guaranteeing absolute certainty. What we aim for is a high level of reliability.

Abdullah bin Salam lived 1,400+ years ago.
He converted to Islam immediately, before there was any animosity between his tribe and Prophet Muhammad صلي الله عليه وسلم. And also, before any jizya was legislated.
So, your agument has been defeated. But if you have no shame, you can carry on using that argument.

Is it certain that a man walking about in Palestine 2000+ years ago is God?

They believed that by learning Japanese and working as Tempeitai, they could demonstrate that the Japanese God was true.
However, after the war ended, their hopes vanished like smoke.

So there, your argument about 'afraid of death' and 'unwilling to pay jizya' has been defeated.

Have you studied all religion? I'm sure you have not. You even admitted you have almost zero knowledge about Islam.
So why do you make such a dishonest statement? Or perhaps you didn't know that you made a false statement.

Imagine that. You don't have 100% faith that Jesus is God.
I have 100% faith that Jesus is a man sent by God but he is NOT God.
You are mixing up faith with reliability..you cannot use the same measure to quantify faith and reliability... reliability has to undergo many tests..
you cannot have absolute certainty that Jesus is not God simply because Allah has never spoken to you about it.
The Father recognize that Jesus is God..

Because the Quran disagree with previous scriptures..there is no way you can believe what the Quran say at 100%

There was no animosity between the Prophet and the tribe of Banu Qaynuqa when Abdullah bin Salaam. The entire tribe didn't fear the rag-tag Muslims. They were utterly disappointed that the prophet who was supposed to appear in Yathrib wasn't Jewish. That much is true.
So, you cannot keep saying "fear" when there wasn't any. Your argument has been defeated, but maybe you don't know it yet. Keep at it if you like. I will try to show you that your arguments cannot stand.

You said you don't have 100% faith Jesus is God.
I said I am 100% sure Jesus is not God.
And, I now wish to remind you that you lack basic knowledge of scriptural criticism. So, it is best you ask instead of making statements about the scriptures. We can already see that you don't have much knowledge.

So how come Pink cannot have 100% faith in Jesus as God?
Because the Bible is corrupted, correct?

I have complete faith in Jesus and am confident that Islam is false because many of its claims lack supporting evidence. I believe the Bible stands on its own and doesn't require external validation. Conversely, it seems that some Muslims feel the need to challenge or question other scriptures, possibly because they've been conditioned to promote Islamic teachings.

Do you have a brain?
Understand that I see reliability as something measurable, whereas faith is inherently different and cannot be directly compared or quantified.

You did say you cannot be 100% certain Jesus is God because you cannot be 100% certain the Bible is true.
You only said "highly likely" Jesus is God.
And you cannot be certain because the Bible is fallible. (I've toned it down).
