I don't know any that are quite scientifically accurate and contradictions can sometimes be misunderstandings in the symbolic nature of sacred texts.

Hinduism has thousands of sacred texts. Some have descriptions of things that are agreed by scientists today (like in the Vedas where it describes the end of our solar system before the dissolution of the universe begins). It says that our sun in the center of the planets will grow large and ger hotter and turn a shade of red. It will engulf the planets before finally collapsing on itself. The Vedas also say that universes come forth from God (everything manifests from the divine, that is Its nature) and everything returns to it eventually. So all the universes first emerge from nothing into something (God manifests the universe from Itself and yet also still pervades it...that means that everything in the universe retains the divine spark and should be treated just like one would treat God, because it's true inner nature is also divine like God...according to Hinduism). From that nothing from which something all comes (sort of like the Big Bang theory), the universe then expands outward for a very long time (I believe Hindus date the universe to be about 425,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 years old ... approximately). Eventually, like all things, the universe will begin is progression back towards the source until the something becomes nothing again. And then, the whole process starts all over again. Souls from the last universe that hadn't reached God yet (moksha...liberation from the cycle of birth and death and union with God) will have a chance to keep on going on the next new universe. Everything starts out small and evolves to larger more complex designs (atoms, then atoms gather and form other forms of mass....life does the same). Thus Hinduism accepts the following scientific theories:
Big Bang Theory
Universe Expanding Theory
Evolution Theory
among others
In fact, Hinduiss doesn't have a problem with science at all. If you do happen to encounter what appears to be a contradication between religious texts usually a Hindu teacher will simply say the one phrase that I have understood most and admired greatly about Hinduism "It's just a different perspective on the same thing". That is the core concept of Hinduism. "Truth is One, paths are many." Rig Veda 1:164.46.
I don't know of any homophobic, racist, or sexist language in any of the Hindu sacred texts. In fact, many of the rishis who chanted the original Veda were women. There are many mythological stories that have the devas (aspects of God) changing genders, being sexual with each other regardless of gender, etc. These stories are symbols of a persons inner spiritual journey and the nature of the relationship between the person and God, etc. A lot of different symbolism going on there. Even the devas are just symbols themselves.

Buddhism, Jainism, and Sikhism (and for that matter most Eastern religions) tend to also be similar to Hinduism in not only their approach to spirituality/religion, but also in its inclusive language. Atleast, in general they are.

If you want to learn more about Hinduism here are some good links:

The site also sells a CD with all the texts on them that are on their site.

The New World Translation of The Holy Scriptures is the only Bible that is accurate. The Bible never contradicts itself. The reason people say this is because they don't understand what they are reading. You will see that many sections of the Bible REPEAT what others have said, this is there for a back up For example in the Gospels you will see that the Crucifixion is told by at last three of them.Some give more information than the others.

i'm able to in uncomplicated phrases communicate to the bible provided that i have not examine the qur'an or bhagavad gita or the different religious texts, yet there is a few heritage which has been substantiated through more advantageous-biblical expenditures consisting of the assyrians and babylonian conquests. thus far because the jesus miracles there is not any favor to trust they befell in any respect if the guy did not exist, that's mostly the tutorial consensus. I submit to in innovations listening to naturalistic factors of the ten plagues of egypt, yet i do not submit to in innovations what they were or the position I said them, yet i'm no longer even optimistic if there is substantiation that any of those activities befell in any respect. do not ignore that persons exaggerate stuff for all time, and once you've an time table, consisting of spreading a faith, then this exaggeration will ensue extra usually because it serves a objective. So the thoughts weren't even unavoidably what easily befell, in the experience that they were eye-witness expenditures in any respect.

Non-Muslim Scientists embraced Islam after discovering the Miracles of the Noble Quran!



Allah Almighty Said:

"We will soon show them Our signs in the Universe and INSIDE THEIR SELVES, until it will become quite clear to them that it is the truth. Is it not sufficient as regards your Lord that He is a witness over all things? (The Noble Quran, 41:53)"


Very Important Discovery:

A new star forming out of a cloud of gas and dust (nebula), which is one of the remnants of the "smoke" that was the origin of the whole universe. (The Space Atlas, Heather and Henbest, page 50)
Allah Almighty said: "Then He turned to the heaven when it was smoke...(The Noble Quran, 41:11)"
The Noble Quran on the Origin of the Universe
Only Islam claims that the universe was originated from Dust and Hot Gas, or Smoke.





Another Very Important Discovery:


Allah Almighty Said: "And when the heaven splitteth asunder and becometh ROSY LIKE RED HIDE - (The Noble Quran, 55:37)"
What Allah Almighty is Saying here is that when Galaxies explode, they form a red-rose-shaped explosion. He is also telling us that the Universe will all turn into red exploded galaxies looking like red or reddish roses when the Day of Judgement happens.

In the Arabic Noble Verse, "wardatan" was translated as "ROSY" above. The root word "WARDA" in Arabic LITERALLY means "ROSE" or "FLOWER". The "tan" at the end of "wardatan" is not part of the word. It is only an Arabic PUNCTUATION that only changes the sound of the word for grammatical rules. It is pronounced as "ten", with the "a" being short. The reason why the above word was not written as "wardaten" is because in many parts of the world, the English word "ten" (number 10) is pronounced as "tin". Only the American-English pronounce the "e" as a short "a". Most of the world uses the British-English system and they pronounce the "e" as "i", and the "o" as it is, such as "stop" pronounced as "stope". The American-English pronounces the "o" as a thick "a". Also, if we were to add two Arabic characters, "alif" and "noon" at the end of "warda", it would change the pronunciation to "taan" (wardataan), and it then becomes two "wardas"; plural.
**** Explosion of Galaxies can not be seen with the naked eye. It also can not be seen with regular telescopes. You need the special Government-owned and NASA-owned "Hubble Space" Super Telescope. The point from all of this is that Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him could not have come up with any of this on his own 1500 years ago!

The explosion of Stars (FORMING RED ROSES), Galaxies and the Universe in the Noble Quran had been confirmed by NASA.





http://www.harunyahya.com/

"This web site has been developed with the aim of promoting and publicizing the works of Harun Yahya, a prominent Turkish thinker and author. His books have attracted great attention both in Turkey and worldwide. In the 90's especially, the works of Harun Yahya have been a means of intellectual awakening for many Muslims, and non-Muslims alike, in the face of the illusions of the modern age. In other words, the name Harun Yahya is an invitation to the truth.
....................
The books of Harun Yahya and thus this web site seek to recall various crucial facts, which people are led to disregard and even deny under the influence of the turmoil of the modern age. One of these basic facts is that of creation, that the universe, living things and man, are not self-existing entities, but the artifacts of God, the Supreme Creator. We are all created by Him and to Him we will all return. The allegedly "scientific" challenges to this fact — like Darwinism and other materialistic dogmas — are nothing but deceptions, as explained in this site."
