This common ancestor - what do you/science think it looked like?
As Br. Hamzeh has already alluded to, the
common ancestry could be anything from sounding clay (Arabic: salsalin) from black mud (Arabic: ham-in) altered.
With respect to the verses you cited me, please bear in mind that I have never stated that God cannot do things (anything) instantly; indeed He can. My argument was simply that what may have occurred at an
instant with/to God may, not have come about so instantly to us. So, I was calling you out on your usage of the phrase
Be and it is as example of the instant creation of the universe.
By the way, 2:259 actually supports my argument that God is outside the bounds of time and space.
Furthermore, no-where in those verses you cited suggest that those things which occurred, occurred in an instant; nor that they occurred over a long period of time. Those verses are mute as to the process and length said acts had to undergo.
With respect to the scientific evidence I was referring to in earlier post, I am going to need to ask you to bear patient with me and I shall cite you ample evidence.
