Is there Science in the Quran?

It is often said by Muslims that one of the proofs that the Quran came from Allah is that it describes scientific phenomena that were not understood at the time it was written.

When Muslims present these miracles from the Quran, they can sound impressive.

However if you read the Quran in its entirety you will see that these statements are just pulled out from a body of poetry and are counterbalanced by all the unscientific statements everywhere else, such as ants talking to Solomon.  Ants do not have vocal cords.

When scientists want to solve a hard problem, do they run to the Quran for inspiration?  Do Muslim scientists win all the Nobel prizes?

I encourage you to read the Quran for yourself to judge the whether the "science" it contains really proves that it originates from Allah.

Also here is a book that talks about this topic in great detail.

1)  The author of Quran thinks that the people of the Book believe that Mary is part of the Trinity, and that Jesus was conceived in a biological way.

There is no way to justify that Mary is part of the Trinity from the "Book".

1) We should keep in mind that today's Quran is from 1924.

Even Shabir Ally lets the 1924 claim stand:

There anything claimed that was not known in 1924?

3) Is there are there any scientific statements in the Quran that point to things yet to be discovered by science?  Or is it always like last week's lottery numbers?
