Some scientists alleged that the creation of Adam / the first human is an ‘anti-scientific nonsense’, and God did not create Adam from a handful of dust, and water like the holy books says. Nowhere in the holy books can you find a verse that Adam was created by God from a handful of dust. What is written is recorded in Genesis 2:7, which says: “And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.”
And in the Quran , God mention ; “And (remember) when your Lord said to the angels: ‘I am going to create a human (Adam) from sounding clay of altered black smooth mud. So when I have fashioned him and breathed into him (his) soul created by Me, then you fall down prostrate to him.” (Quran 38:71-72).
“And God said: ‘O Mankind! Be dutiful to your Lord, Who created you from a single person (Adam) and from Him (Adam) He created his wife (Eve), and from them both He created many men and women.’” (Quran 4:1)
“Verily We created man from a product of wet earth; then placed him as a drop (of seed) in a safe lodging; then We fashioned the drop into a clot, then We fashioned the clot into a little lump, then We fashioned the little lump into bones, then clothed the bones with flesh, and then produced it another creation. So blessed be Allah, the Best of Creators!” [23:12-14]
“It is He Who has created you from dust then from a sperm-drop, then from a leech-like clot; then does he get you out (into the light) as a child: then lets you (grow and) reach your age of full strength; then lets you become old,- though of you there are some who die before;- and lets you reach a term appointed; in order that you may learn wisdom.” [40:67]
While it is true that God created man from the dust of the ground that mixed with water ( clay) , and the clay was altered that is the secret of this clay ,the alteration that God made to mix the correct balance of each element and mineral to be included in the make up of the first human.
the phrase “handful of dust” is absent in the verse! It is conceived it the minds of some of those who dont believe . There is no such a thing as a ‘handful of dust’, whose hands will be the measuring hands for the dust that God will use in the formation of Adam? People who cremate the dead have an idea of how much dust will be left of the human body after cremation.
I am sure it is not a sack of dust; but very close to a handful — depending on the hands that holds them. And why is it scientific? God made man from the dust; and when his body dies it decomposes and turns again to dust.
(Genesis 3:19) “In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.” dust to dust and ashes to ashes.
Now this is another area where God is trying to tell us that he created man from clay and he will return to the basic elements of earth , in regarding to Ash he created the Devil and his like from Fire and very specific part of the fire , God called it Marej , and that’s mean the outer part of the fire flame with smoke. So the devil die like human and they will be ash like the product of fire .Lucifer will stay as God promised him but many other devils live and dies as human do in this earth.
What are the scientific proof that man’s body came from the dust of the ground ? The human body is made up of materials and minerals found on the surface of the ground, and not from the core of the earth. Oxygen, being the most abundant element on the earth’s crust or on the ground, makes up 65 percent of the human body, along with water and carbon, also abundant on the top soil of the ground, is 18 percent, and hydrogen is 10 percent. The 59 elements found in the human body are all found on the earths crust. This is amazing because what the holy books says perfectly match the scientific composition of a human body.
The ignorance of these ‘imaginary people’ in what the Bible says betrays their alleged intelligence and knowledge in science. Of course, the human body is not made up only of dust, but God mixed the dust to water to produce clay.
(Job 10:9) “Remember, I beseech thee, that thou hast made me as the clay; and wilt thou bring me into dust again?”
(Romans 9:20-21) “Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus?Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honor, and another unto dishonor?”
The exact proportion of the minerals and materials, if maintained, make up a healthy human .
.body(http://www.emory.edu/EMORY_REPORT/erarchive/1998/September/erseptember.21/9_21_98Size.html).
Excesses in these materials will cause disorders and diseases.Excess of aluminum, for example, and iron, will be toxic for the human body. The proportions of the abundance of the 59 elements on the earths crust, is amazingly represented in its presence in the human body. Who says that the Bible is not scientific? These ‘imaginary and anti-scientific people’!
Abiogenesis is not scientific, it is a poor substitute, at best, for any real explanation of how live began. DO NOT suppose yourself to have the answer, lest you mark yourself a fool.
Further, Darwin’s THEORY of natural selection certainly applies within a species. But the Cambrian layer of the fossil record – of which Darwin had no knowledge . On top of that, he had no apparatus for the studying the contents of the human cell. He had no idea of the micro mechanics of cell maintenance and reproduction including the processes of DNA/RNA, amino acids, and proteins. If he had, he would likely have pointed to the possibility .
Darwin admitted in his text that, “If it could be demonstrated that any complex organ existed, which could not possibly have been formed by numerous, successive, slight modifications, my theory would absolutely break down.” He said modification and that is what the holy book said about altered.
Science tries too hard to sell its theories as fact, even when the theory is out-weighed by scientific law. The big bang theory, for instance, go directly against the first and second laws of thermodynamics. WHY??? It’s because the atheistic faction of the scientific community is too proud of its own work to consider the existence of ID.
