Scientists look for water as a prerequisite for life because it is important for life to exist. It will be easier for you to just tell me why you think the verse is a miracle because I really don't think anything of this verse at all.
I'm looking for a miracle not in the form of magic. I'm looking for a verse that could not possibly have been written by a man in the 7th century without divine intervention.
Now you present me with a verse that says all living things are made from water.
This is from a website dealing with Egyptian creation myths.
There are creation myths and writings of all sorts around the time of Muhammad and before, which included people being made from clay, water, bodily secretions and so on.
So basically as I said all I ask myself when I look for a miracle is "Is there any sort of information here which is unique, clear, and which Muhammad could not have known about except via divine intervention."
The answer to this verse is obvious, there are plenty of creation myths involving water, the verse is not unique, clear or informative in the slightest, it just says god made life from water. Even wild animals, cows and sheep or whatever know water is important for life, it isn't information which has been recently discovered.

Quote: . .Since the Nile river, with its annual floods played a critical role in this cosmic order. It should come as no surprise to find water the fundamental element in the Egyptians ideas of creation..In the beginning there was only water, a chaos of churning, bubbling water, this the Egyptians called Nu or Nun. It was out of Nu that everything began.

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.
