What would be a more scientifically accurate term for "sunrise"?
"Sunrise" is inaccurate, of course, because the sun is not actually moving up. I'm not actually planning on using this more accurate term; I'm just having trouble coming up with a good one. I don't think there is an official scientifically accurate term, I'm looking for you all to make one up. Something short, accurate, and understandable.
Which religion is the most scientifically accurate.
Please to not say "scientology" or that science or religion are 2 different things. I just want to know the answer to my question and manybe a few examples as to why you think your answer is so. I think it would be hinduism, but I want to know if I'm mistaken. For example, the seven colors of the sun are mentioned in the vedas. "Seven horses draw the chariot of Surya" It is also mentioned in the vedas about gravity. "objects fall on the earth due to one force. The Earth, planets, constellations, moon and sun are held in orbit because of that one force". Lastly, it is mentioned that the earth revolves around the sun, not the other way around and that all the planets revolve around the sun “The Sun does never set nor rise. When people think the Sun is setting (it is not so). For after having arrived at the end of the day it makes itself produce two opposite effects, making night to what is below and day to what is on the other side…Having reached the end of the night, it makes itself produce two opposite effects, making day to what is below and night to what is on the other side. In fact, the Sun never sets….”
Job 26:7 proves the Bible is scientifically accurate. What do you think, atheists?
I'm just joking. Christians like to quote Job 26:7 as a means of helping them feel like their beliefs are valid. Job 26:7 says that the earth is suspended on nothing. Let's go back to the years 700 to 500 BC when the book of Job was written. If I lived during that time, I would think that the earth was flat. Naturally, I would wonder what was beyond the edge of the earth. I would think that if I took a boat and sailed to the edge of earth that I would fall off into nothingness (or space), which is precisely what flat earthers from all ages believed. God did not impart esoteric knowledge to the author of Job, so I would appreciate it if Christians reading this would stop acting like people from ages ago didn't know that nothingness/space existed beyond the earth and quit using Job 26:7 as "proof" that God wrote or inspired the Bible. Job 26:7 (New International Version) He spreads out the northern skies over empty space; he suspends the earth over nothing.
How are these scientific facts mention in the Quran so accurate?
Too much to cover it all here, but I will address your additional details. >> ADD 13 and the 32 together and you get 45. 13/45 = 28%ish Which is unfortunately not that close to the actual ratio. It's closer to 29.5% than 28%. If it's so scientifically accurate, why isn't the ratio better? A few more of each word would give a MUCH more accurate ratio - like say 15/51. >> Islam does not say that the sun rises and sets in merky (sic) waters ... Uhh, yes it does. Well, the Quran does, whether or not Islam accepts the fact. http://www.apologeticspress.org/articles... >> It is not permitted to the Sun to catch up the Moon, nor can the Night outstrip the Day, and they all swim in an orbit. Actually, the sun "catches up to" the moon every month. >> It is He Who created the Night and the Day, and the sun and the moon: all (of them) swim in an orbit. Except that the sun doesn't actually orbit the Earth, the way that those two surahs claim. >> The egg that they are referring too is an ostrich egg. Its spherical but with a bulge near the equator Have you ever seen an ostrich egg? That's pretty much the opposite of its shape. The Earth is an "oblate spheroid" which is shortened at the poles and elongated around at the equator. An ostrich egg is a "prolate spheroid" which is elongated at the poles and shortened around the equator. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/co... http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/co... http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/a6/Ostrich_egg.jpg >> I just wanted to point out how the things that were mentioned in the quran in the 7th cent. are just being proven by modern science. Well, not exactly. If you meant to say "just being proven WRONG by science," then yeah.

They're not and science is not so accurate as yet though its getting better.
