"And the earth, moreover, Hath He made egg shaped.” [Al-Qur’aan 79:30]
If you search the word دحاها dahaha in the arabic dictionary you will find the meaning ostrich egg .
So how about that
Well that's funny because the Earth is NOT egg-shaped. It's a near-perfect sphere which bulges out in the middle, making the distance around the equator the longest point of circumference - about 40,075 km. Yet pole-to-pole the distance is only 40,008 km. Have you ever heard of an egg with a shorter circumference top-to-bottom than around the middle? It's the exact reverse of egg shaped. Eggs have the longest point of circumference top-to-bottom.
You do know he's gonna say some semantic bullshit like "well if you put the egg on it's side..."
But yeah, definitely not egg shaped sorry

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie
