Quote:This verse says:
“as often as their SKINS are ROASTED THROUGH, WE SHALL CHANGE THEM FOR FRESH SKINS, that they may TASTE THE PENALTY”.
It is clearly stating that arrogant sinners would suffer burning to an extent until their SKINS WILL LOSE THE CHARACTERISTIC OF FEELING PAIN, thus indicating that skin will lose the specific feeling of burning if burnt to a certain extent. TO CONTINUE THE PENALTY FRESH SKINS would be given to them.
No the quran doesn't say that the skin will lose the characteristic of feeling pain. It doesn't say CONTINUE the penalty. It says they will taste the penalty.
We will drive them into a Fire. Every time their skins are roasted through We will replace them with other skins so they may taste the punishment.
You need no knowledge of biology to know that when you burn stuff it disappears or turns black and crusty, the quran is simply saying that the burning of the skin hurts and in order to repeat it once the skin has either blistered and melted away, god will replace the skin back to where it was again and burn it again.
If I say I will chop your ear off then replace it with another ear to be chopped off again so you may taste the penalty it's not a miracle, I'm giving you no information about pain receptors.
It's just me making a stupid threat involving primitive brutal methods combined with fairytale magic.
Additionally you still haven't proven that even if you do believe the verse is saying the skin will lose the characteristic of feeling pain that people back then didn't know that severe burns caused numbness.
One more additional point is I can't figure out why you're still insisting this is a miracle. You claim the verse is saying without the skins pain receptors the body will not taste the punishment, yet we have both established and agreed that other organs do sense pain.
You magically keep a person alive and immortal and have a fire roast through them and even once the skin has roasted through the fire will eventually hit and damage other organs that will cause pain.
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.
