With all this talk of so-called miracles in the Qur'an, what miracles would you have been able to point out to me around 1000 years ago?
Many of the "miraculous" verses quoted can be interpreted in a number of different ways, the meanings twisted to agree with an idea.
Like the fetus being covered by three layers of darkness, an anatomist can identify more than three layers but muslims choose only to recognise three of them to suit the Qur'anic verse.
When an ambiguous statement is produced, it is inevitable that the passage of time would provide more opportunities to interpret the statement in light of current understanding.
What miracles could you have shown me in the Qur'an on the day after it was completed?
You have two right?
The first is that there is nothing else like it - though many would argue that the Psalms and the book of Job are similar if not superior.
The second is that there is no contradiction in it - though some would say that there are contradictions in it.
The absecnce of contradictions does not necessarily imply that a document is miraculous.
Can you find a contradiction in this post that I have written?
But the Qur'an is over 6000 verses right? So I would have to write as many verses without contradicting myself to prove my point.
But if I repeat half of them, like the Qur'an does, I can write 3000 different verses to prove my point.
