Let me pause here before I continue presenting more evidences proving the existence of Allah (God) and let me summarize and update the probability of all the presented five guesses.
I have already presented to you 5 cases and they're:
# 1: Quran on Bee?s role in nature: (the chances that this guess will be correct is 1/2).
# 2: The Quran on the Origin of the Universe: (the chances that this guess will be correct is 1/1000).
# 3: Quran on The Lowest Area on Earth: (the chances that this guess will be correct is 1/2000).
# 4: Quran States The Sun & The Moon Run on a Fixed Course (Orbits) : (the chances that this guess will be correct is 1/9).
# 5: The Quran on the Cerebrum: (the chances that this guess will be correct is 1/6)
In all of them I presented well-established modern scientific FACTS to support my cases.

The probability of all the already presnted five guesses being all correct is 1/2 x 1/1000 x 1/2000 x 1/9 x 1/6 = 1/216000000 which is equal to 0.000000005 (or 0.0000005%) ![/SIZE]
It seems you are not living in this world.
It is very easy for anyone to say: 'Your scientific argument is collapsing' without even trying to use any well-established scientific reasoning or evidences or logic to refute any of my arguments.
When you understand and you are able to deal with scientific evidences and facts then I will spend my time to argue with you. But arguing with someone who doesn't understand the scientific proving metholodgy is a waste of time.
If you couldn't notice yet, I have used well-established scientific facts (not theories) in my debate with Numpty in proving that this Book, the Quran, could not be authored by man, rather a greater source had to have been the author of this Book. And I am willing to continue presenting more evidences.

[SIZE="3"]# 5: The Quran on the Cerebrum:[/SIZE]
ALLAH (God) has said in the Quran about one of the evil unbelievers who forbade the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) from praying at the Kaaba :
"No! If he does not stop, We (Allah) will take him by the naseyah (front of the head), a lying, sinful naseyah (front of the head)!"
[The Noble Quran, 96:15-16]
Why did the Quran describe the front of the head as being lying and sinful? Why didn?t the Quran say that the person was lying and sinful? What is the relationship between the front of the head and lying and sinfulness?
If we look into the skull at the front of the head, we will find the prefrontal area of the cerebrum (see figure 1). What does physiology tell us about the function of this area? A book entitled Essentials of Anatomy & Physiology says about this area, ?The motivation and the foresight to plan and initiate movements occur in the anterior portion of the frontal lobes, the prefrontal area. This is a region of association cortex...?1 Also the book says, ?In relation to its involvement in motivation, the prefrontal area is also thought to be the functional center for aggression....?2.
Figure 1: Functional regions of the left hemisphere of the cerebral cortex. The prefrontal area is located at the front of the cerebral cortex. (Essentials of Anatomy & Physiology, Seeley and others, p. 210.)
So, this area of the cerebrum is responsible for planning, judgment, motivating, and initiating good and sinful behavior and is responsible for the telling of lies and the speaking of truth. Thus, it is proper to describe the front of the head as lying and sinful when someone lies or commits a sin, as the Quran has said, ?...A lying, sinful naseyah (front of the head)!?
Scientists have only discovered these functions of the prefrontal area in the last sixty years.
:lightbulb:
Once again, how did the author of the Quran know this scientific fact?
Perhaps the author of the Quran was a genius or a scientist. Well, I don't think that could be a possibility, becuase no matter how smart you are, you'll never be able to discover the brain functional neuroanatomy, unless you possesed these modern scientific technology/capabilities which did not exist 1400 years ago, so those could not be a possibility. Perhaps the scientific fact is observable. Well, this is not true either, because Scientists have only discovered these functions of the prefrontal area in the last sixty years.
Finally, perhaps it was a very good guess. Well, it is a possibility. The brain is divided into many areas each resposible for a certain function, i.e., vision, auditory, memory, taste, etc..Let us say there are a minimum of 6 main areas. If it was a good guess then we'll say it was a 1/6 chance, one sixth chance if that was the case - or coincidence, we can look at it that way. Therefore, the chances that this guess will be correct is 16.66% (1 out of 6) i.e. 1/6.

[SIZE="3"]# 6: The Quran on The Expansion of the Universe:[/SIZE]
In the Quran, which was revealed 14 centuries ago at a time when the science of astronomy was still primitive, the expansion of the universe was described like this:
[SIZE="2"]"And it is We (Allah) who have constructed the heaven with might, and verily, it is We who are steadily expanding it."
[The Noble Quran 51: 47][/SIZE]
The word ?heaven?, as stated in this verse, is used in various places in the Quran with the meaning of space and universe. Here again, the word is used with this meaning. In other words, in the Quran, it is communicated that the universe ?expands?.
And this is the very conclusion that science has reached today.
Until the dawn of the 20th century, the only view prevailing in the world of science was that ?the universe has a constant nature and it has existed since infinite time?. The research, observations, and calculations carried out by means of modern technology, however, revealed that the universe in fact had a beginning and that it constantly expands.
At the beginning of the 20th century, the Russian physicist Alexander Friedmann and the Belgian cosmologist Georges Lemaitre theoretically calculated that the universe is in constant motion and that it is expanding.
This fact was proved also by observational data in 1929. While observing the sky with a telescope, Edwin Hubble, the American astronomer, discovered that the stars and galaxies were constantly moving away from each other. A universe where everything constantly moves away from each other implied a constantly expanding universe. The observations carried out in the following years verified that the universe constantly expands. Refer to this NASA website for evidences for Expansion of the Universe NASA's Cosmicopia -- Ask Us - Space Physics - Cosmology - Expansion of the Universe.
This fact was explained in the Quran when it was yet unknown by anyone. This is because the Quran is the word of God, the Creator, and the Ruler of the entire universe.
Maybe the unbeliever would say that perhaps it was a very good guess by the author of the this book (The Quran). Well, again it is a possibility. There are basically three (3) options (we can think of more!): either the universe is static (no expansion), or it is shrinking, or it is expanding. If it was a good guess then we'll say it was a 1/3 chance, one third chance if that was the case - or coincidence, we can look at it that way. Therefore, the chances that this guess will be correct is 33.33% (1 out of 3) i.e. 1/3.

[SIZE="3"]# 7: The Quran on the Barriers between Different Seas:[/SIZE]
Today, scientists tell us that there is actually a barrier between the bodies of water, and that this information has only been discovered recently, using advanced equipment. Now let me give you an example: there is actually a physical barrier between the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean. This barrier - the two seas basically differ in, number one, temperature, salinity, and density, and between these two seas there is an actual physical barrier. And of course, this barrier between the seas which we are talking about is not visible to the naked eye.
The famous French oceanographer, J. Cousteau, gives the following account as a result of his studies in water barriers: ?We studied the assertions by certain researchers about barriers separating seas, and noticed that the Mediterranean Sea had its own salinity and density and housed autochthonous fauna and flora. Then we examined the water of the Atlantic Ocean and discovered features entirely different from those of the Mediterranean Sea. According to our expectations, these two seas that merged in the strait of Gibraltar should present similar characteristics in terms of salinity, density and other properties. The two seas presented different features even though they were adjacent. This greatly puzzled us. An incredible barrier prevented the two seas from coming together. The same sort of a barrier had also been observed in Bab Al-Mandab in the Gulf of Aden connecting with the Red Sea.
Subsequent to our observations, further researchers made it clear that the seas which had different characteristics had some barriers.?
This fact that astounded oceanographers was revealed 14 centuries ago in the Quran. This aspect, not visible to the naked eye and appearing to be in conflict with the properties of water known to man, was first revealed to men in the Arabian peninsula, men who were not at all experienced in any sense with oceanography.
Let's see what the Quran has to say on this topic. Inside chapter fifty-five, verse nineteen it says over there:
[SIZE="2"]"He (Allah) it is how has set free the two seas meeting together. There is a barrier between them. They do not transgress." [The Noble Quran 55:19][/SIZE]
Now this is a statement which completely agrees with modern science. Scientists have only recently discovered that there are barriers inside the ocean, between the seas, and I gave an example between the Atlantic and the Mediterranean. This fact that astounded oceanographers was revealed 14 centuries ago in the Quran. This aspect, not visible to the naked eye and appearing to be in conflict with the properties of water known to man, was first revealed to men in the Arabian peninsula, men who were not at all experienced in any sense with oceanography.
The barriers between adjacent seas demonstrate a rich diversity, a result of the perfect planning of God. Wherever we turn our gaze, the complexion of human beings, the infinite diversity of flowers, etc., demonstrate the marvelous diversity of God?s creation. The Quran refers to the waters that do not coalesce. This is because of a physical characteristic called ?surface tension.? Thus, neighboring seas present different densities, salinity rates and compositions. These differences enable media that permit different species to coexist. Thus, fish, plants and microorganisms living under water present untold varieties. Water, that usually mixes easily, can turn into a wall thanks to God?s imposition and operation of physical laws, contributing to this variety. This fact is not affected by strong waves and currents. This property to which the Quran refers is a miraculous statement unknown at the time of the Prophet and presents clear evidence for the man of understanding.
