Believe that if you want, WinterHold. I think you're wrong.
I think what you have in Islam is bits and pieces of knowledge "borrowed" from neighbouring cultures, seen through the eye of the Texas Sharpshooter Fallacy by modern-day believers - trying to tie Quranic mythology to science by liberally reinterpreting poetic phrases in the context of things that were discovered long after the Qur'an was written.
There's nothing the least bit divine in the passage you quoted. Humans have known about the sun, moon and planets for a long, long time.
1-I place my source for ideas as being the Quranic verses (quoting them in process),
2-then I mention my interpretation for them and what made me conclude & believe in that interpretation to be the true one.
I also use my native fluency in Arabic language and ability to read Arabic by birth.
Borrowing "sources to support my interpretation" (step 2) in producing the interpretation, is fine by me and actually an eye opener too: under the conditions of the sources be authentic (like documented scientific articles from Wikipedia/other authentic sites).
Don't forget that I'm a globalist individual who believes that humans "are all the same specie with mere differences in color". So borrowing a credit fact from another culture is very legal for me.
