And the reading of your hypothetical book causes scientists to go and develop that principle.

I notice that all the scientific "discoveries" in the Quran came well after the scientists had done all the real work.

And that the passages that apparently encode some scientific principle are so vague that they could be construed to mean anything.

Okay let say that we lived in 14th century, where most of scientific discoveries is yet to be discovered. What kind of principle do you wish to be in the holy book.

p / s : I believed, that a sign couldn't be too scientific or else, only highly intelligent quotient people able to understand it... And Quran's vagueness, I believe has been questioned over the ages, thus the book itself made a clear statement about it. [Refer Quran 3:7]

Quote:He it is Who has sent down to thee the Book: In it are verses basic or fundamental (of established meaning); they are the foundation of the Book: others are allegorical. But those in whose hearts is perversity follow the part thereof that is allegorical, seeking discord, and searching for its hidden meanings, but no one knows its hidden meanings except Allah. And those who are firmly grounded in knowledge say: "We believe in the Book; the whole of it is from our Lord:" and none will grasp the Message except men of understanding.

Completely meaningless statement, I thought your god was omnipotetent, so therfore he would have had no problem putting something in the quaran that lead men to make major discoveries.
Even something as simple as penicillin being found in mould.
But nothing, nothing that is apart from the 7th century rantings of an manipulative paedophile.
