The same reasons lots of religious texts exist - a conglomeration of ideologies combined into one work for the intent of spreading a message, either because of genuine belief or because there was an individual or group who really wanted to pass on their ideology.I wonder about this excuse. Some say it isn't real and it was made up, but if so why do you think they would do such a thing?

But why this "ideology"?The same reasons lots of religious texts exist - a conglomeration of ideologies combined into one work for the intent of spreading a message, either because of genuine belief or because there was an individual or group who really wanted to pass on their ideology.
Could be many reasons. Could be that they just genuinely believed it, could be that they wanted to enforce this kind of ideology as a way of propping themselves or the status quo up, could be they felt it was advantageous to them or society in some other way.But why this "ideology"?
That depends what you mean by “made up”. I believe most of the Koran (and other Abrahamic scriptures) describes mundane, temporal events. I see no reason to believe they didn’t happen at written, at least in general terms. The main sticking point is whether that was inspired by a divine being or not (and specifically the divine being their believers attribute them to ).I wonder about this excuse. Some say it isn't real and it was made up, but if so why do you think they would do such a thing?

The Quran doesn't actually fix the problems in the Bible; if it had all the details, it would be divinely inspired to solve it...Some say it isn't real and it was made up, but if so why do you think they would do such a thing?

What about if you don’t believe in the infallibility of the Quran but see it as inspired to a degree in accordance with the human limitations of the Prophet?I wonder about this excuse. Some say it isn't real and it was made up, but if so why do you think they would do such a thing?
The Quran is from God not the prophet. But yeh that's what the Quran calls a disbeliever.What about if you don’t believe in the infallibility of the Quran but see it as inspired to a degree in accordance with the human limitations of the Prophet?
Why was it meaningful?Because it was meaningful to the people who wrote it down, in this case having sacred value. Whether it is meaningful to you or me is completely irrelevant.
Why was it meaningful?
Why? Those who say that the Quran is forged mostly seem to claim it is made based on the Bible. So why would it be written again so it goes against the bible?They believed it had religious significance.

What emperor?If you don't believe in the Quran why do you think it was written?
I believe the Koran has lots of verses that are inspired by the Divine
I believe the koran has quite a view verses that are inspired by the Emperor(s) at that time
The Divine inspired verses were obviously to guide mankind in the Divine direction
The Emperor inspired verses were obviously to help the Emperor
What emperor?
