Long ago, people used to think that the Earth is flat and if you go to the edge, you will fall off. However, in the Quran that was written 1400 years ago (WAY before the discovery that the earth was flat) it says that
"And more, He has extended the Earth( far and wide or also in the shape of an egg)" [79:30]
Also, the Holy Quran says how to trace fingerprints!
"Does man not think that We can assemble his bones together? Yes! We are able to put together he very tips of his fingers perfectly." [75.3-4]
There are also more scientific facts in the Quran if you just READ IT!
Also, in the Quran it says that creatures on other planets exist!
Just please take your time to read the Quran wisely and tell me what you think of these verses in the Quran.

KitKat.........the Quran was sent down after the bible because the bible was not in it's original form. You all have to remember that fact! How can the present-day bible be the truth if it's been corrupted as much times as it has been.

* In the Quran, it is referring to an Ostrich egg.

You are 100% correct.
Here is an excellent, EXCELLENT site to prove that the Holy Qur'an is from God:
http://www.islam-guide.com
This is not just a site of information about Islam. This site demonstrates how, 1400 years ago, BEFORE modern scientists discovered these things, the Qur'an talks about:
* human embryonic development
* mountain formation
* origin of the universe
* the cerebrum
* seas and rivers
* deep seas and internal waves ("layers" of waves)
* clouds
* scientific commentary on Qur'anic scientific miracles
There is NO WAY that ANYONE of the time could have known any of this on their own. The Qur'an is true, it's Word of God. If you don't believe me, just read the site. Before saying no to anything, read the site first. Then pick up a copy of the Qur'an and read it yourself. If you don't have a copy of the Qur'an, click here for the Qur'an online:
http://www.usc.edu/dept/MSA/quran/
Regarding the Earth being shaped like an egg: it's shaped like an orb, but not a perfect orb. The circumfrence around the north and south poles is actually shorter than the equator. So yes, the Earth actually IS shaped like an egg. Not like a chicken egg, but like an egg nevertheless.
Like I said, if you don't believe, read first before coming to a conclusion. Make an EDUCATED decision, don't be content burying your head in the sand without even taking a peek at what you're missing.

1,400 years ago, educated people knew the Earth was not flat. The Earth's curvature is pretty evident to anybody who sails the Mediterranean... or goes for a long walk and watches mountains recede, or climbs a hill, or...
The whole "flat Earth" thing was believed by uneducated peasants in the European Middle Ages, but not by the educated, or sailors...
None of this "proves" any accuracy in the Q'uran regarding the existence of a supernatural being.

Here is the Truth. The Bible recorded LONG before the koran that the earth was round and the rest of what you show as your "proof" is crap too. Fact; the koran is just a collection of stolen facts from the Bible, made up stories from the twisted mind of a little man who is Very dead now (and never had any power any way) and out right LIES. Oh yea, he also included a fair amount of incitement in there like "kill everybody who says I'm wrong". Junk!!!!!!!!!!!!

I guess it couldn't be that someone just figured out that the earth must curve or people would not disappear past the horizon.
You're stretching with saying that quote indicates tracing fingerprints. Someone just noted that we have no seams, even on the rounded tips of our fingers.
Haven't met any aliens lately.
Okay, I'm done.

The Tao was written in 600 BC and there are numerous correlations between it and Modern Quantum Mechanics. Also, did you know Muhammed used to have sex with 6 year old girls? The "Holy Prophet" had sex with a 6 year old named Aisha, and married her when she was 9. You don't see Jesus doing that, maybe Joeseph Smith, but we all know w/o a doubt that Mormonism isn 't true.

The Earth isn't shaped like an egg. It's not a perfect sphere but it's definitely not an egg.
You have offered evidence that the Quran is false, not proof that it's true.

There was no "discovery that the earth was flat". It was discovered to be a sphere.
Did you add this phrase in parentheses yourself (far and wide...etc.)?
I see no reference to fingerprints in your next example, nor of "tracing" them. It simply has a reference to perfect fingers, not unique fingerprints.
You are twisting these verses to suit your own agenda, and very few people here are going to be fooled.
I prefer to find my scientific facts in scientific journals, thanks.

What do I think? I think so what. Big deal. I'd rather read a comic book, I'd get more out of it than the Koran or the Bible or any of this hodge podge of okum smokem jibberish. What a waste of Your life, poor child.

No.
If i say the truth of the matter between two choices is either this or that, I can't be wrong.
"far and wide" (flat) or "shape of egg" (round)
