If you're finding yourself in a maze, you shouldn't be asserting that there are inaccurate statements in the first place.

That's a fact. Read the verse, "And We created from water every living thing" (21:30) for example. According to the biological classification known as the two-domain system, all living organisms are either:
- Archaea
- or Bacteria
Eukaryotes (=Archaea) are made of eukaryotic cells (duh), and the cytoplasm of such cells is about 80% water. For bacteria, most of a bacterial cell is water (about 70%), so both categories of living organisms are largely made of water.
This fact couldn't have been known by anyone in the prophet PBUH's time, and it could have been easily falsified. There is nothing left to say, this verse is a miracle.
