the guy is only piking the things that Hippocrates where correct on and removing the wrong things. he says that both the man and the women has sperm which is incorrect. the guy should add the entire list of the mistakes he made as well.

you see If it was copied by them then how could Mohammed (pbuh) know what was correct and removed that which was incorrect? how did Mohammed (pbuh) know what was correct and what wasn't?

the Quran says we bring them together and clothe them with flesh. it doesn't say the bones are created separately and then the flesh covers it after they are complete. that's simply him (the guy in the quote) misinterpreting the text



If the text is ambiguous enough to have to be interpreted it is completely worthless.

Ignoring that, I noticed you picked on Hippocrates but failed to address Aristotle. There is no differentiation between Aristotle and Qur'an Embryology in terms of stages. 

 

What are you interpreting flesh to mean? Skin? If it's muscles as is common medical terminology:

 

flesh

  noun ˈflesh
 

Definition of FLESH

: the soft parts of the body of an animal and especially of a vertebrate; especially : the parts composed chiefly of skeletal muscle as distinguished from visceral structures, bone, and integuments—see goose bumps, proud flesh

 

 

"Look further at the bones, how We bring them together and clothe them with flesh ..." (Al-Baqara 2:259)

Bones join and then are clothed with flesh (muscles, soft tissue). Explicitly clear here, at least to anyone with a modicum of understanding of medical terminology.

Again, not only does it borrow from existing knowledge of embryology, but it does so inaccurately.

 "A central part of Aristotle’s ideas on embryology was the concept of the menstrual blood coagulating to form the embryo. He regarded menstrual blood as a kind of semen, which required the male semen to initiate development of the embryo by spontaneous generation"

http://www.islamicwritings.org/quran/medical-miracles/does-the-quran-plagiarise-ancient-greek-embryology/

he also made mistakes that are not in the Quran

oh and btw when quoting from the Quran make sure you are quoting the right words as Al-baqara does not talk about human embryology. 

when someone picks something randomly from the Quran to prove their point it means they are just spreading lies!
