So it's about 71%, not exactly 71.11%.

In other words, you didn't "prove" anything.

Even though it's already disproven because the numbers don't quite work, I'd like to see the interpreter's degrees of freedom here. Is the count even reliable? Did they count all forms of the word? Did they count the words river, lake, etc.? Land, earth, whatever.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

No it doesn't. They talk about WHERE the water is, not whether it's water or ice or snow. Again, the 71% figure includes ice and snow - it counts Mt Everest as covered in water! Yet people walk up it, clearly it's not covered in water.

Hey, Lying Bullshitter, have you looked at my Melville post yet? Are you going to accept that a) your numerology from the qu'ran is bullshit, or b) that Moby Dick is as predictive as the qu'ran is?

what ur misunderstanding my friend is snow like hail falls from the sky and collects and melts on land just as rain soaks into the soil (land). So snow and ice in Russia, Antarctica, Alaska, and all the other cold places are land. The 71.11% water that covers our Earth is made up of oceans, seas, lakes and rivers.

So it's about 71%, not exactly 71.11%.

Well 71.11% is not even .2% more than 71%. Closer than any amount u have proven. So to make u feel better 71% is right at ABOUT 71.11% which is calculated and verified in the Holy Qur'an.

Not relevant, but at least it was fun to exclaim in uppercase.
