I threw in Prof Moore as he disagrees with the Qu'ranic description of the development of bones - so if
you are going to quote him you have to quote him fully.
secondly, you immediately ticked one of my deflecting arguments - namely it's a mistranslation or it has more than one meaning. Of course it always does. I am very aware of Prof Moores work, and no it does not resemble a leech at all, only if you retro fit it to your belief in such.
Whoever wrote the Qu'ran he was not very precise in his descriptions and left us arguing over words, translations and ambiguous statements - not likely to be the work of an all powerful all knowing creator.
The backbone and rib example is a red herring retro fitted to try and explain an absurdity - why would a god describe where 'reproductive seed' came from in a foetus?
And any way this was described in "The History of Animals" ,book 3, by Aristotle, written 350 B.C.E - so it is not new information
"Deaths in the Bible. God - 2,270,365
not including the victims of Noah's flood, Sodom and Gomorrah, or the
many plagues, famines, fiery serpents, etc because no specific numbers
were given. Satan - 10."
