I just mixed salt water and fresh water right now.

They certainly mix.

Allah should have said oil and water don't mix.

E) The Quran on Seas and Rivers:

Modern Science has discovered that in the places where two different seas meet, there is a barrier between them. This barrier divides the two seas so that each sea has its own temperature, salinity, and density.1 For example, Mediterranean sea water is warm, saline, and less dense, compared to Atlantic ocean water. When Mediterranean sea water enters the Atlantic over the Gibraltar sill, it moves several hundred kilometers into the Atlantic at a depth of about 1000 meters with its own warm, saline, and less dense characteristics. The Mediterranean water stabilizes at this depth2 (see figure 13).

 

ch1-1-e-img1.jpg

Figure 13: The Mediterranean sea water as it enters the Atlantic over the Gibraltar sill with its own warm, saline, and less dense characteristics, because of the barrier that distinguishes between them. Temperatures are in degrees Celsius (C°). (Marine Geology, Kuenen, p. 43, with a slight enhancement.) (Click on the image to enlarge it.)

Although there are large waves, strong currents, and tides in these seas, they do not mix or transgress this barrier.

The Holy Quran mentioned that there is a barrier between two seas that meet and that they do not transgress. God has said:

aqwas-ys.jpg He has set free the two seas meeting together. There is a barrier between them. They do not transgress. aqwas-ym.jpg (Quran, 55:19-20)

But when the Quran speaks about the divider between fresh and salt water, it mentions the existence of “a forbidding partition” with the barrier. God has said in the Quran:

aqwas-ys.jpg He is the one who has set free the two kinds of water, one sweet and palatable, and the other salty and bitter. And He has made between them a barrier and a forbidding partition. aqwas-ym.jpg (Quran, 25:53)

One may ask, why did the Quran mention the partition when speaking about the divider between fresh and salt water, but did not mention it when speaking about the divider between the two seas?

Modern science has discovered that in estuaries, where fresh (sweet) and salt water meet, the situation is somewhat different from what is found in places where two seas meet. It has been discovered that what distinguishes fresh water from salt water in estuaries is a “pycnocline zone with a marked density discontinuity separating the two layers.”3 This partition (zone of separation) has a different salinity from the fresh water and from the salt water4 (see figure 14).

ch1-1-e-img2.jpg

Figure 14: Longitudinal section showing salinity (parts per thousand ‰) in an estuary. We can see here the partition (zone of separation) between the fresh and the salt water. (Introductory Oceanography, Thurman, p. 301, with a slight enhancement.) (Click on the image to enlarge it.)

This information has been discovered only recently, using advanced equipment to measure temperature, salinity, density, oxygen dissolubility, etc. The human eye cannot see the difference between the two seas that meet, rather the two seas appear to us as one homogeneous sea. Likewise, the human eye cannot see the division of water in estuaries into the three kinds: fresh water, salt water, and the partition (zone of separation).

Wise words.

 

Though I like to say:

You worship God your way

I'll worship him His ;)

 

just kidding. Live, let live and practice wise tolerance. Religious arguments are silly because people have different holy books and traditions. And lets face it, much of the science and some of the ethics (slavery, sexism, religious sanctioned killing..) is a bit dated.

 

Personally I can't help hoping that an Infinite God isn't as tied to ancient books as we humans seem to be.

 

What about your house party? Did Ban Ki-Moon come?

You can use the word "F..k" for a Prophet.

 

Who the fuck says he's a prophet?

 

There is no Creator in the first place, let alone prophets of the Creator.

 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inter-Services_Intelligence

 

The Directorate for Inter-Services Intelligence (more commonly known as Inter-Services Intelligence or simply by its initials ISI), is the premier Intelligence service of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, operationally responsible for providing critical national security and intelligence assessment to the Government of Pakistan. The ISI is the largest of the three intelligence services of Pakistan, the others being the Intelligence Bureau (IB) and Military Intelligence (MI). Previously in the 20th century, the ISI's work and activities have included the support of the Afghan mujahideen in then-communist Afghanistan against the Soviet Union in their war against the mujahideen (in conjunction with the Central Intelligence Agency) and later provided strategic and intelligence support to the Taliban against the Indo-Iranian backing the Northern Alliance in the civil war in Afghanistan in 1990s.[1]

 

I am bored to approve what you say is 100% wrong. Do something more creative. Surprise me.

 

I don't think you understand how Wikipedia works. Look at the reference cited. It doesn't mention CIA at all.

 

Which school are you graduate of? Primary School? You can not read and understand English?

 

In your own picture there is a zone of "vertically mixed."

 

Also Muslims added the phrases "The Partition" and "Zone of Seperation". Do you see where it says "slight enhancement"?

 

That is not there in the original book.

Bullshit from the sewage. You are defeated. Go to your hole. Persevere. Do not eat rats. They are dirty. Struggle with your personal Satan. Meditate about the shame you introduce to Buddhism.

You are defeated.

 

You used fake evidence with "slight enhancement" and got caught.

Fake evidence is your art. You think everybody is like you. That is very normal in human psychology. However, you are wrong as always.

That was your understanding. With such a primary school reasoning, you may only go to primary school and get educated there. Slight enhancement? Do not worry with that much complicated things.

 

Think simple. Measure the diameter of your sewage hole. Ask yourself why you have chosen to live there?

You own material admits to making "a slight enhancement".

Whats complicated?

 

You used fake evidence manufactured by other Muslims.

Holy Quran Surat Ar-Raĥmān (The Beneficent), 55th Sura

 

(55:19) He released the two seas, meeting [side by side];

 

(55:20) Between them is a barrier [so] neither of them transgresses.

 

Which nobody can deny except servers of Satan.

Slight enhancement means the figure were simplified in order to make primary school graduates can understand it. You even could not handle that.

Yes Muslims changed the figures and faked the evidence, because they don't understand even simple science.

Not this bullshit again. The scientific claims of the Koran have been debunked so many times. The Koran gets all the science wrong.

You have said the above quoted sentences.

 

Explain:
