I have debated Christians and Jews and most recently a Hindu. None of that ancient claptrap had any modern scientific knowledge.
"Sperm" to all cultures back then was like a seed you planted in a field, no one of any religion had any fucking clue what DNA was.
Humans back then thought the man gave the seed and planted it to grow like a crop in the field (the girl/woman). That shows absolutely no working knowledge of human biology.
The word "atom" existed in ancient Greek, do you think they BACK THEN knew what a nucleus, proton, electron or quark were BACK THEN? No they merely meant "REALLY REALLY SMALL THING".
I had a Christian apologist argue to me that Aquinas new about Quantum Mechanics, did the same shit you are doing here. No math, no peer review, simply ambiguous words. Like a child seeing shapes in the clouds.
I've even had arguments with Star Trek fans who claim the show predicted the modern cell phone. If that was true then why don't we all worship Captain Kirk as a god? Others claim the transporter is a future possibility.
"Sperm" to ALL cultures back then was the ignorant idea that men had seeds like you plant in the ground. Primitive thought and ignorant thought having nothing to do with reality.
Actually I didnt read the big part of what you write , I'm so tired and sleepy.
The presence of atoms was an abstract idea and it has been proposed firstly by Hindus , not Greeks . Greek travallers were collecting this informations from different peoples of distant lands.
Quran talks about atom as "zerre" or "zurra" , I'm not sure . Some verses in Quran talks about more small pieces of "zerre" , so protons-neutrons-electrons-quarks-god particle etc ...
