Quran is not man-made book

Contention 1- If there are one or more errors or contradictions in the Quran, it is not from God. As God is an all-knowing and perfect being, it would not make sense that a book from him would contain any mistakes. I'm sure you will agree to this. Contention 2- If God did not write the Quran, then it is man-made. The only non-human besides for God on your list of possible authors, is Satan. You say that the Quran couldn't be from Satan, and I agree.Errors in the Quran1) Quran 71:15 "Do you not consider how Allah has created seven heavens in layers" The earth's atmosphere is composed of only five layers.[1] Why does the Quran claim there are seven?2) The moon appears lit because it reflects light from the sun. (and maybe from the stars and/or earth)[2]Yet the author of the Quran seems to think the moon produces light itself. Verse 71:16 says, "And made the moon therein a light..." The Arabic word for reflected (in`ikaas) is not used in the verse that says the Moon is a "light". It instead uses the word "Nuru" which is used to denote an entity that emits light. The word "Nuru" is also used in 24:35, to show that Allah is the "light" of the universe. Clearly the author is not implying that Allah reflects light from another source but is the source of the light.3) Verses 86:6-7 read, "He was created from a fluid, ejected, emerging from between the backbone and the ribs." We know that sperm comes from the testicles, and semen from the pelvic region, which is not between the backbone and ribs. Why does the Quran tell us the wrong place that sperm originates from?4) One of the verses you showed from the Quran was Verse 16:68. Interestingly enough, that same verse has an apparent error. 16:68-69 say, "And your Lord inspired to the bee... Then eat from all the fruits and follow the ways of your Lord laid down [for you]..." Bees don't eat fruit they eat pollen and nectar. If the lord commanded them to eat fruit, wouldn't they obey? 5) Verse 16:79: "Do they not see the birds controlled in the atmosphere of the sky? None holds them up except Allah. Indeed in that are signs for a people who believe." Birds fly because of the difference in air pressure between the lower and upper part of the wing. This creates lift which pushes the bird upward. The author of the Quran, seems to be unaware of this scientific process and says that "none" holds up the bird except for Allah.6) Quran 5:116- "And behold! Allah will say: 'O Jesus the son of Mary! Didst thou say unto men, worship me and my mother as gods in derogation of Allah'?" The author is obviously not familiar with how the Trinity works. Mary was never worshipped. It was Jesus, the Father, and the Holy Ghost.7) Quran 9:30 "The Jews say, 'Ezra is the son of Allah '; and the Christians say, 'The Messiah is the son of Allah .' That is their statement from their mouths; they imitate the saying of those who disbelieved [before them]. May Allah destroy them; how are they deluded?" The problem is Jews have been strictly monotheistic and don't believe in any sort of trinity, or son of God. The Jews don't say, "Ezra is the son of Allah."8) The Qur'an (2:18) calls non-believers "deaf, dumb, and blind". However, all the technology, medicine, and scientific advancements in the Muslim world are almost exclusively purchased from the non-Muslim countries. Computers, television, space travel, helicopters, media players, nuclear bombs, cameras, satellites, birth control pills, vaccinations, telephones, radios, light bulbs, microchips, games consoles, refrigerators, microwaves, plastic, aluminium, x-rays, antibiotics, heart-transplants, the internet etc., were all invented by non-Muslims.[3]9) 23:14 "Then We made the sperm into a clot of congealed blood; then of that clot We made a (foetus) lump; then we made out of that lump bones and clothed the bones with flesh; then we developed out of it another creature. So blessed be Allah, the best to create!" First, at no point does sperm become a clot of blood. Second, bones and flesh form simultaneously. Third, what is the creature developed out of the bones and flesh?10) The Quran forbids believers to marry idolatrous women [Sura 2:221], and calls Christians idolaters and unbelievers [9:28-33], but then in 5:5, allows Muslims to marry Christian women. Can Muslims marry Christian women or not? Or more importantly, why does the Quran say both?11) 22:47 says, "...a day with your Lord is like a thousand years of those which you count." But 70:4 says, "...a Day the extent of which is fifty thousand years." Which one is it?12) Verse 78:6 says, "Have We not made the earth as a wide expanse..." Now this sounds like it is implying the earth is flat. Why else would it say, "wide?" It could have said large or massive, but wide implies a flat surface. That the author thought the earth is flat, is also supported by verse 20:53, "Who has made earth for you like a bed (spread out)" And, 79:30, which says, "And after that He spread the earth;" Just looking at these verses, and the choice of words used, leads one to believe that the author did not know that the earth was spherical.Arguments against the existence of AllahThis is relevant to this debate because if Allah doesn't exist, he couldn't have written the Quran.Allah is all powerful. Why did he, (Allah is a he, he has nothing physical but somehow we know tht Allah is a he...) in 2009, allow Nidal Malik Hasan to fatally shoot 13 people and shoot and injure more than 30?[4] Allah is also a perfect being, and he is only good. Does it make sense that an all-powerful, all-good, perfect being, would sit back and not intervene when innocent soldiers and a civilian are being slaughtered?The Quran says that Allah all-knowing and all-wise. According to the Quran, Allah knew that Osama Bin Laden would be a terrorist and would orchesrate many terrorist attacks. Why would Allah have allowed him to be born? Isn't Allah supposed to be 100% good? So he should have stopped Osama's evil.One moment please. I'd like to make a prayer. Dear merciful great Allah, please stop this slanderous debate argument from being posted. Please also give me a Rolls Royce. All the best, Teaparty1 Just like all of us would have thought, this argument was successfully posted. Additionally I am still Rolls Royce-less. You can try your own prayer, go ahead. See if it works. Back in 2006 there was a large study done on the effects of intercessory prayer (prayer that God should intervene.) A major result from the study was “Intercessory prayer had no effect on recovery from surgery without complications.”[5] In fact, the group of patients who were not prayed for, had a one percentage point higher rate of complications.[6] Allah let these people become sick - thats bad enough. Then he didn't even respond to people's requests that the surgeries should go well. Smh.Why did Allah make it that people are born? If there is a greater good after we die, he should have put us there straight away. If the answer is that we have to earn our way to that greater good, that wouldn't make sense either. Allah is all-powerful, so he CAN make us go to that great place WITHOUT earning it. If he is 100% caring and 100% good, he should give us the best possible experience immediatly. ConclusionIt is highly unlikely that an invisible, all-knowing, all-powerful, non-physical being, wrote the Quran. Therefore it is most likely man-made.
