Science is the brother of Islam

[Mister Agenda]

أكبر‎ fuck your allah is Mohammed is a fag.

I do not wish any ill to you for your blasphemy of the Holy prophet (peace be upon him), the sacred page, or your enmity with Allah most gracious most merciful, but out of love for you I must warn you about the danger that you place yourself in when you make yourself an enemy of Allah and the testimony of his compassionate servants who exhaust themselves and labor night and day after risk of death for the salvation of souls.

Thanks for keeping your composure in the face of provocation. It speaks well of you.

Pain Receptors

For a long time it was thought that the sense of feeling and pain was dependent on the brain. However it has been discovered that there are pain receptors present in the skin [18]. Without these pain receptors, a person would not be able to feel pain.Consider the following verse on pain:

We shall send those who reject Our revelations to the (Hell) Fire. When their skins have been burned away, We shall replace them with new ones so that they may continue to feel the pain: God is Almighty, All-Wise. [4:56]

Neither science nor revalation is needed to figure out that the main way we feel pain is through our skin. It's s simple observation. You misunderstand the thought behind saying pain is felt in the brain: it is the brain that is signaled by the pain receptors in the skin (and elsewhere) and interprets those signals as pain. Cut the connection between the receptor and the brain, and you won't feel the pain. If Allah is omnipotent, it would be trivial to induce pain by stimulating the brain directly, even if the skin was gone. The reverse you refer to was clearly intended to explain to Mohammed's followers, who clearly already knew that for ordinary purposes skin was necessary to feel pain, why they would not cease feeling it once their skin was burnt off in hell.

God tells the people who reject his message that when they are in Hell and their skins are burnt off (so they can’t feel any pain), he will give them new skins so that they continue to feel the pain.

It would have been more impressive if he had told them all he needs to make them feel burning agony is their brains. THAT would have seemed like eery foreknowledge.

The Quran makes it clear that pain is dependent upon on the skin. The discovery of pain receptors in the skin is a fairly recent discovery for Biology.

Praise Allah!

It's only impressive if you think the Muslims of the time couldn't possibly have been intelligent enough to make a connection between their skin being damaged and feeling pain.

Though I'm wondering if you think a broken bone won't hurt if the skin isn't damaged? The skin isn't the only organ with pain receptors.
