I think you have magically ignored to read some the real remarks from me over which i had based the assertions, to which you had responded, i'll reproduce those lines here for you,
*Actually the point of view that Islam contains scientific facts or that Islam and science are compatible are wrong. There many ways to prove this point but the most stragiht forward one is that.
Islam by its nature demands certainty, like you are required to have an absolute faith, the faith in which you believe in God with 100% certainty. Like if you believe that God is Just, then you should believe this without any doubts, i.e. certainly.
Now science is no way like this at first, science never provides any certain truths, Because science is mostly based on induction, and induction can't provide us with the certain truths, There is always some chance of being wrong. And since science is based on induction so it never proves anything, Proof is logical and mathematical concept. And logically induction can only lead us to probable truths.
Now if we accept that Islam really contains the scientific facts then this isn't working for the cause of Islam, why because this is proving islam to be prone to errors, And on contrary God can't make mistakes, So there is simply no possibility that Islam can be wrong.
I'll entertain any kind of questions but i'll recommend any material on philosophy of science before rejecting my point of view.

What i had said about my understanding was based on above lines, now if my understanding leads me to this conculsion, How this can be my Sin?
