Have you ever considered that someone.....sit down now, im gonna debunk Islam as you believe in it, right now!......has dissected a human body (or two) by the 7th century?*
I know, it sounds totally crazy, and its of course much more likely to be magic, god, splitting moons, stuff like that, right? But still, can you even imagine someone dissecting a human body by the 7th century?
But see, thats the difference between you and a clever apologist: A clever apologist would have claimed "Muslim medicine was so advanced back then, they already knew about 360 joints. Therefore Allah!". Still insanely stupid, but at least not as stupid as your argument.
Of course you will also fail to see that the fact of those 360 joints are not the problem, they are actually an irrelevancy. The problem is your underlying methodology to cross check your beliefs with reality. You have a belief and are looking for confirmation. Its guaranteed to lead you to false conclusions. Thank you for this very clear demontration of confirmation bias.
