Look through the information. Any intelligent person can recognize that the Quran is God's words after looking through the information thoroughly. |
I actually did look through the information you presented, and I decided initially that there was nothing worth replying to. I did reply to a later comment you made, but you didn't respond. Here's the post:

You did not present any facts in your original post, there were simply a lot of opinions borne out of ignorance. All of the critiques of scientific theories that you linked to were products of a severe lack of understanding of the concepts.
The supposed predictions by Muhammad were nothing of the sort. The point about the geology of mountains was crap. "Modern earth sciences have proven that mountains have deep roots under the surface of the ground and that these roots can reach several times their elevations above the surface of the ground. So the most suitable word to describe mountains on the basis of this information is the word ‘peg,’ since most of a properly set peg is hidden under the surface of the ground." The only reason you don't see anything wrong with this argument is because you're a Muslim and you don't know much about science. Since I'm not a Muslim and I know a little bit about science, I can see how ridiculous that conclusion is.
Characterizing mountains as pegs and fetuses as chewed substances is not even close to scientific.
All of the points are basically the same. The guy picked out ambiguous verses from the Quran and jumped to farfetched, unsupported conclusions. His arguments are way too much of a stretch to be taken seriously.
