Quote:1) The universe has always been joined together...it's the universe. It didn't explode or rip itself from...itself either.but it was all as a joined entity(one piece) and now its not.
Quote:2) The verse says "the heaven" is expanding, not the universe.i clarified this before the word heaven means the sky or what is above us which include everything except the earth when talking about the universe it is the earth and the heavens
Quote:3) There are many theories on what might happen to the universe; the Big Crunch is but one of them, and it doesn't say anything about the universe being flat.as i know there is big crunch and big chill it depends on their examination of the dark matter.anyway we are waiting and hoping that they discover this when we are still alive talking about this information was impossible to even imagine 1400 years ago
Quote:All this is irrelevant because it hasn't happened yet, so to say the Qur'an has scientific knowledge of these is ridiculous...because it hasn't happened.you are saying this because the third verse about the big crunch is not established yet?what about the first and the second? regarding the universe being flat i qouted from nasa website so correct this information if am wrong
