Scientific Evidence for Religious Miracles

Just trying to gather some Scientific evidence for miracles most religious prophets are believed to have performed- splitting of moon, walking on water, virgin birth, so on and so forth.

P.S. I don’t believe science has answers for everything, I am just wondering what has or has not been proven.

Re: Scientific Evidence for Religious Miracles

there are no miracles just science. miracle of yesterday is science 101 of today.

todays science can do all the stuff you mentioned above.

IVF, egg donation, test tube baby .. all shows that virgin birth is possible.

Re: Scientific Evidence for Religious Miracles

^ That's not what we refer to as virgin birth.

Re: Scientific Evidence for Religious Miracles

Who split the moon? I dnt remember reading that anywhere…:confused:

Prophet Muhammad SAW

Re: Scientific Evidence for Religious Miracles

Oh..Sorry..I am still studying Islam...can you tell me if you remember where it is mentioned in the Quran...if u dnt mind???? :)

Surah Al-Qamar
**The Hour (of doom) has drawn near, and the moon has been split asunder. [1] And when these people see a sign, they turn away and say, “(This is) a transient magic.” [2] And they have rejected (the Truth) and followed their desires, while every matter has to be settled (at some time). [3] And there has come to them as much news (of the earlier communities) as contains enough to warn, [4] a perfect wisdom, but the warnings are of no avail (to them). [5] Therefore, turn aside (O Prophet,) from them. (They will see the reality) on the Day when the caller will call to a terrible thing. [6] With their eyes humbled, they will come out of the graves like locusts spread all over, [7] rushing quickly towards the caller. (On that Day) the disbelievers will say, “This is a **difficult day.” [8]

Re: Scientific Evidence for Religious Miracles

These religious miracles from hundreds of years ago.. are just exaggerated or symbolic stories.. there is no actual scientific evidence towards it.. references to books written back then etc are not actual evidences..

what kaka said is right in a philosophical way... there are many things science does now that wud b consider miracles till a few hundred years ago.. but thats not what the discussion is I guess.

So no.. no scientific explanation to these ancient miracles.. cuz none of them are factual.

Re: Scientific Evidence for Religious Miracles

r u saying that what is mentioned in Qur'an about scientifical miracles r just exaggerated or symblic stories.

B4 i reply tell me 1 thing r u muslim or what?

Re: Scientific Evidence for Religious Miracles

lethal.. i dont blindly accept or follow anything that is written in any religious book.

Re: Scientific Evidence for Religious Miracles

Accepting not accepting is different issues. What u wrote above is simply pathatic and ill-minded comments.

If i don't knw about ur religion i will not bother to pass my comments until i go through it and understand what is it about.

Re: Scientific Evidence for Religious Miracles

lethal. my point is t hat we shudnt blindly believe in something because its in a religious book.. these miracles are not factual incidents.. they make no scientific sense.

Re: Scientific Evidence for Religious Miracles

Well, In case of my religion (being a Muslim) I do believe because this religious book (called Qur'an) is not just only a religious book in fact it is the literal words of God and what God said in it we believe without any hesitation.

So tell me r u muslim? where u from? What is u r religion? if u don't wanna post here never mind pm me bro! i'll keep it secret :)
