Quote:There are no scientific discoveries in the quran. Repeating the dogma that there are, does not change the facts. I won't waste my time with the video link as it would be a complete waste of bandwidth.
You are correct here johndoe.
Actually, the issue just needs re phrasing. Those are not discoveries, looking from a Quranic perception, since Quran was revealed by Allah Who Is the Creator of all those issues. Those were facts foretold and taught to an illiterate, just as Dan said, 1400 years ago which didnt become known to us till recent eras. This is the whole point. For instance, during the time of the Messenger salla Allah a`lhyee wa sallam, mountains were not know to be items to pin down the earth, only in recent eras that geologists found out about them.. etc.
Thus, the sentence just needed to be re phrased. But as usual, when u converse, u dont focus on the core of interest which is that this knowledge was brought to humanity thru and illiterate who never left Arabia 1400 years ago. But u just argue in marginal superfacial matters whether or not those issue can be classified as scientific discoveries.
They are so to us John, I mean in the modern times, they were discoveries.
