It is not the least bit controversial. It's wrong, but not controversial.

Where is the controversy ? Al Quran is a book written for illetrate bedouins 1500 years ago. Bible, same but 3000 years ago.
While looking for scientific truth in those book. Faith is a personnal matter, it is in your heart (or not). It is not an rationnal thing. And thus, a religious fact is not provable and so not refutable.
Science is at the opposite. Scientific facts are provable.

What's to dfiscuss? Where's the controversy? This was proved wrong hundreds of years ago. No one with an education above the thrid grade debates this.

The earth itself rotates on its own axis, but it revovles around the sun on its elliptical path. The book is obviously wrong on that subject, that is all there is to it.

Take your information and try to calculate an orbit out around the moon and back ,using you theory I don't think u would make it back.

I guess if the facts disagree with the book, you throw away the facts right ?
