Bringing my sledge hammer to a pillow fight again I suppose...
Clearly Harris has no answer on how to fast anywhere other than the Earth. Muhammad didn't know people would be needed to fast in space otherwise there would be Iyaht or Hadith address the topic. Allah, for some reason, didn't foresee this. The Quran even says Allah created humans to be weak and yet it is left up to weak humans to retrofit the Quran.
You're missing the point on embryology and it actually doesn't matter what anybody else says because the Quran gives incorrect information. The Quran says that bones come before the flesh/skin which is wrong. Hamza was forced to admit he was wrong after talking to P. Z. Myers.
Let's adress the word Alaqah
First look at this photographs of embryological stages (that do not come from a crooked Dawah website):

I have a number of problems with the Quran besides it not clarifying which stage of embryological development it's referring to.
1. Embryos do not look like leeches. They only way Embryos can look like leeches is if you remove the yolk sack (part of the embryo) and take the photograph from a very particular angle (i.e. be dishonest).
2. Also, the embryo does not cling to anything, in floats in the womb.
3. An embryo does not look like "chewed flesh". This is an insult to the intelligence.
4. Does not look like a clot either.
All verse translations below are Abullah Yusuf Ali.
I have another problem with the Quran and this is historical, not scientific. The Quran claims that Mecca is thousands of years old, the first settlement on Earth even:
3:96 Lo! the first Sanctuary appointed for mankind was that at Becca, a blessed place, a guidance to the peoples;
2:127 And when Abraham and Ishmael were raising the foundations of the House, (Abraham prayed): Our Lord! Accept from us (this duty). Lo! Thou, only Thou, art the Hearer, the Knower.
How can this be demonstrated archeologically? You would need to prove that Abraham existed and show that people have been visiting Mecca from the time of Abraham all the way to the time of Muhammad. We would expect to see lots of evidence for human activity around the site of the Masjid al-Haram since ancient times, but we do not.
Next, there are verses that appears to contradict Tawheed. The Holy Spirit isn't something expect from Allah as the Quran is a rejection of Christianity and people have all sort of wonderful arguments against the Trinity. They say the Christian go isn't one and yet Allah has a Holy Spirit too:
97:4 Therein come down the angels and the Spirit by Allah's permission, on every errand:
If we look at the Tafsir for 97:4 we see Al-Jalalayn agrees with my analysis.
12:87 "O my sons! go ye and enquire about Joseph and his brother, and never give up hope of Allah's Soothing Mercy: truly no one despairs of Allah's Soothing Mercy, except those who have no faith."
It's not clear in the Yusuf Ali translation but Al-Jalalayn agrees that Iyah 12:87 is referring to the Spirit of Allah:
http://www.quranx.com/Tafsirs/12.87
Quran 25:53 is also scientifically inaccurate:
It is He Who has let free the two bodies of flowing water: One palatable and sweet, and the other salt and bitter; yet has He made a barrier between them, a partition that is forbidden to be passed.
Stopspamming addresses the dishonesty surrounding this Iyaht beautifully and mixes fresh and salt water together, something anybody can try out at home.
