If Islam is so great, why aren't westerns flocking to your homeland in record numbers?
Why is this? Could it be the the laws and beliefs of Islam create unstable, undesirable society (overpopulation, cruety to women, lack of science/invention) etc?
So, in essence, you are using the scientific knowledge discovered by man to prove that the same scientific knowledge allegedly in the koran was not discovered by man?far too many western scientists do prove that the scientific evidences found in the Qur'an are not man made.
I don't think i know about Islam. Ha, Muslims need to mind their own business. Wasn't it UK Muslims who wanted Sharia implemented here? Wasn't it Abu Hamza who fought to implement it? Who publicly supported the DISGUSTING Taliban, Al-Qaeda and Bin Laden? No. Because Muslims always mind their business.
When Muslims quit trying to change the world, we might see peace.
Isn't Abu Hamza the same guy Yemen asked Britain to handover due to terrorism charges in Yemen in which UK refused!! Your country supported that man so if you want to complain, dont indulge Islam in this but complain about your government attitude and how they got all "higher than thou' about Yemen legal system and charges. The man was clearly a manic back then.
We should just leave Iran to make whatever nuclear weapons they want to build, let them brow Israel to bits... Nahhh, it is not up to us to keep peace. Damned if you do and damned if you don't. I am not American, but at least they intervene in terror. All the Muslim world does it burn American flags... This does not mean i wholly support their wars.I think it is when the Western governments stop poking their noses in other nations affairs, is when you might see some peace.
All that knowledge was there many years before in India and China, and a lot of it was already in Arabia. Things were civil back then. Mathemeticians and Scientists shared inventions... All for the Europeans to take credit!So, in essence, you are using the scientific knowledge discovered by man to prove that the same scientific knowledge allegedly in the koran was not discovered by man?
And the Greeks get the shaft yet again.
What he said. The fact (and yes, it is a fact) that these scientific discoveries only became known after people doing research actually discovered them, completely without any involvement of the koran, should be the clue that there is a flaw in claiming the koran is a science book.It always comes down to the same thing.
Some religious fundamentalist tries to convince the world that the knowledge gained from mankind's efforts in the discipline of science somehow confirm the holiness of their particular sacred text.
This entire thread is a great example of someone looking (desperately) for vindication of their particular mythology.
There is no small among of irony here in that holding the position that of divine koranic knowledge requires a massive ignorance of both science and history.All that knowledge was there many years before in India and China, and a lot of it was already in Arabia.

i wonder how many womans would they have cut open to look at what a embryo looks like?

Actually I believe that much of the knowledge Galen the Greek physician discovered regarding anatomy was via dissecting monkeys.actually none at all, due to miscarriages.
Essentially you are claiming the knowledge in the koran was not discovered by man. The fact that man discovered that knowledge is evidence against this claim, and the fact that much of so-called koranic knowledge predates it with Greek, Egyptian, Indian, etc. discoveries simply makes it laughable.Response: According to your statement, if these scientific discoveries were discovered without the qur'an, that would make the science in the qur'an miraculous because man had nothing to do with it.

There are hundreds of thousands of Westerners living in Gulf countries alone. In countries what most of you consider "conservative" Muslim countries.

Hundreds of Thousands!!!! There are millions and millions of mulsim who leave their homeland every year. The ratios are not even remotely close to being even.
I assume the westerners move because of the military, high paying oil related jobs and not because they like the weather, landscape or laws.
