Quote:Yes I might have said quran describes things based on 7th century understanding, they understand the constricted feeling, they know what is sky but they wouldn't understand that it's the sign of losing ability to inhale more oxygen because they wouldn't know what oxygen is. That's what I mean that it has to be revealed based on the understandable terms.
Well I guess the question is could muhammad have had knowledge of mountains and the effects of climbing high? The answer is definitely yes he could have because there are mountains in the middle east. Therefore the verse isn't a clear miracle it just creates the question, who told muhammad that climbing high creates breathlessness, was it from the knowledge of people who live in mountainous regions and common knowledge of people in general or from a supernatural being?
Additionally just something about what happens to the chest cavity in high altitude.
Quote:Air moves from areas of higher pressure to lower pressure. As your diaphragm (the muscle that separates your chest cavity from your abdominal cavity) moves downward, the size of your chest cavity increases. This decreases the pressure in your chest and air flows in. When the diaphragm is up, it puts pressure on the chest cavity and the pressure in the lungs is greater than outside the lungs.
The size of the chest cavity actually increases rather then becomes closed and constricted.
This other verse
Quote:Allah has created every moving (living) creature from water. Of them there are some that creep on their bellies, some that walk on two legs, and some that walk on four. Allah creates what He wills. Verily! Allah is Able to do all things.
As I said if Muhammad saw a snake, a bird or a dog that pretty much covers all the animals.
And you say why does it say water and not say blood or soil?
Quote:92:6
Has created man from a clot (a piece of thick coagulated blood).
15:28
And (remember) when thy Lord said unto the angels: Lo! I am creating a mortal out of potter's clay of black mud altered,
15:26
And We did certainly create man out of clay from an altered black mud.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
