One of the common reasons Muslims claim the Qran is miraculous, apart from “awesomely-written-get-the-sensation”, is this sort of stuff which happens a lot with the Qran. There comes a scientific study, and people see some verse that seems to say the same thing, and they say “Lo and behold! The Qran has anticipated science again with this criptical little sentence that always seemed out of left field! Now we know what it means! It is a hint placed there by the LORD, so that, throughout the centuries, the veridical nature of our Holy Book is confirmed once and again, unlike their Bible, that says the Earth is flat and grasshoppers have four feet, roflmao!”. Oh, I appear to have built a strawman that has built another strawman. That was in poor taste. Please forgive it.
