Dear stupid: how many times does the earth rotate in a year?

God Almighty knows the truth and put it in the Qur'an first revealed in the 7th century which is now to this day, over 1400 years later PROVEN AS UNDENIABLE FACT that these numbers and percentages are what exist. Now whether u understand it or accept it or not....that's up to u and doesn't really matter because the proof is in the pudding and the Qur'an with truth with always prevail.

So, what you're saying is, you have to believe in god in order to believe in god.

Simply repeating your assertion without providing direct evidence is really weak. I'd think an all-powerful god could do better than to send such a sorry, mumble-headed messenger. Surely an omnimax god could speak for himself.

If your little Allah is so great, why does he need a mere mortal to expound his truth at all? It should be so evident that there is no gainsaying it.

You're not posting here to spread what you think is the truth. You're posting here to massage your ego, telling yourself what a good Muslim you are. "Islam" means literally submission, yet here you are in your overweening pride trying to stride tall, but bringing nothing outside of empty words and fudged percentages.

Pardon me while I yawn. This is not the first time I've seen a preachy dumbass online.

Good answer my friend. But since the Ancient Greeks that u refer to with this scientific knowledge, didn't come into existence until after Islam (the 7th century), The knowledge had to exist with some higher being before. God Himself

Someone needs to learn his history. The ancient Greeks had those answers a thousand years or more before Mohammed got evicted from a uterus.

A fatal lack of curiosity. It doesn't matter whether the things these apologists spread are provably nonsense. It's a display of piety to say these things in defense of Islam. Whether they are correct apparently plays a minor role. We observe the same thing with Christian creationists. They barely ever change their stories even if they get corrected explicitly. It just doesn't matter all that much whether something is true.

I think you have a sign error in your calculation. All the ground-breaking Greek stuff was in years BC, Islam was created AD. Eratosthenes had already measured the circumference of earth when all things Islam weren't going to be around for nearly another thousand years Smile

How can you know so little and yet speak with so much confidence?

Because he knows so little.

knowledge from The Most High, which neither u nor anyone else, whether u believe it or not, can say is untrue.

Sheed one of the characteristics of bullshit is that it is not true. And we've shown conclusively that all you are peddling with is bullshit. We've shown that all you've got is post hoc (ie after the discoveries were made scientifically) superficial similiarites between what we know and what was written in the pile of sandpapery bogroll you call the qu'ran, quite a lot of which is torturously come by (for example by counting the numbers of time word x is mentioned and then dividing it by the number of times word y is mentioned, both words chosen arbitrarily, to come to a rough approximation of a ratio discovered scientifically). You've never been able to point to a discovery by the qu'ran which was made before the equivalent scientific discovery was made.

And until you do, your bullshit is false, with no amount of your whining being able to say otherwise.
Ok I tell u what my friend. Let's put all mathematical equations to the side for a moment. I'll use more not only scientific but even astronomical miracles for proof. Now incase u didn't read what I put on the page before, I'll restate somethings now:
Unlike English and many other languages, Arabic has no letter "V". So when they translate into languages that use that letter they use a "W" instead. For example if they were spelling the English word VICTORY they would spell it "Wictory". In the Qur'an 8:72 the Arabic letters "WeNuS" appear. The next time these letters appear in the same word in that precise order is 11:3. The final time these letters appear in the same word in that precise order is 17:7. Now following what I previously told u the "W" in the place of where a "V" would be used makes this word spell "Venus" which we all know is a planet in our solar system. Could be just a big coincidence right? But lets look further. Between 8:72 and 11:3 there are precisely 243 verses. NASA has recently verified that just as it takes our Earth 365 days to make 1 revolution around the sun, it takes the planet Venus 243 days to do the same. Then to go further the planet Venus unlike Earth and other planets rotates on its axis at an angle of 177 degrees, and if u read the last time these letters are mentioned in that order are in 17:7 which is the number 177. Now to the next scenario. The Qur'an 46:23 says MAa uRSiltu bihi "What I am sent with" and 46:30 says unzila min ba'aDEI MOoSa "revealed after Moses". Now u see the translation has no apparent astronomical proof to it. It simply states religious message to mankind. But if u pay close attention to the letters I CAPITALIZED in these verses, u see the words MARS and DEIMOS are listed. NASA has recently verified that the planet Mars, which one of its moons is named Deimos, is covered with sand dunes, and also this being the only Qur'anic chapter these names are listed together, which is called Al-Ahqaf which means SAND DUNES, not only giving support to, but also proving my point. Finally in chapter 54 Al-Qamar or The Moon, the word moon is only used in verse 1. Counting the remaining verses to the end of the Qur'an is 1,390. In the Islamic Hijra calendar the year 1390 is equal to the year 1969 of the Gregorian calendar we use to this day. So if I asked any person what happened in 1969 that had to do with the word moon, most people know that is when man (Neil Armstrong) first set foot on the moon. To add to that the word moon is mentioned 27 times throughout the entire Qur'an and the word new moon is mentioned only once totaling 28. NASA has verified that moon that orbits our Earth has exactly 28 stages in its lunar revolution. So with these verified, astronomical, not theories, but proven facts with our technology today, doesn't this seem like too much preciseness on the matter of astronomy, in a scripture revealed in the 7th century, a time when telescopes and computers and machinery didn't exist, to be called just coincidence? Someone who put these in this scripture knew EXACTLY what He was talking about. That someone is God Almighty.

I'm referring to the time period of Greek and Roman astronomy when telescopes were invented in the 16 century and forward. The Romans and Greeks that named the stars and planets after their false mythological Gods, didn't have the technology and science back then to know precise measurements throughout our galaxy. They were so stupid with their theories they called our galaxy the Milky Way because they thought all the stars were from one of their goddesses nursing her children and the baby bit off her nipple and breastmilk poured throughout the galaxy.

LOL, has NASA recently confirmed that? In other news, CERNs Large Hadron Collider has recently verified that water is wet, and super computer calculations at JPL have shown conclusively that 1+1=2.

Seriously, put down the Quran and read a real science book, not just the "scientific" bits and pieces your scientifically incompetent religious sources give you. You know so little, it's painful to watch.

Jesus Christ on a Cracker! You are talking to us about that famous period in Greek astronomy when the telescopes were invented in Holland? Smile

Well the Ancient Greeks of B.C. times couldn't view the stars and planets the way they can view from those telescopes they have now could they? To their naked eye planets looked like stars except for the fact that they don't twinkle they shine. But until those telescopes were invented those ancient Greeks couldn't tell Saturn had rings or Uranus was on its side, or Jupiter had a giant red spot on it where consistently it storms. And ur slander towards prophet Jesus pbuh I'm sure u meant to be offensive towards my belief. But my friend unlike Christians we as Muslims do not worship Jesus pbuh nor any other being besides God

Sheed... Can I ask you a dumb simple question.
If you just happen to be born to Christian parents in another country, which sacred book would you be reading and who would you imagine would be your one true God?
No God, No fear.
Know God, Know fear.
