[quote=Anonymous]The thing is, Quran is anything but clear about "how humans are made." Let's take a look.

11:61 It is He Who hath produced you from the earth
15:26,28,33 We created man from sounding clay
17:61 ... Thou didst create from clay
32:7 He began the creation of man from clay
19:67 We created him before out of nothing
23:12 We created man from a product of wet earth (loam) (Pickthall)
23:12 Man We did create from a quintessence (of clay)
38:71 I am about to create a mortal out of mire
25:54 It is He Who has created man from water (see also 21:30, 24:45)
3:59 He created (Jesus) out of dust
30:20 He created you from dust
35:11 Allah did create you from dust ....
30:19 It is He who brings out the living from the dead
39:6 He created you from a single Person (see also 4:1)
16:4 He created man from a drop of fluid (Pickthall)
16:4 He has created man from a sperm-drop
32:8 He made his seed from a quintessence of despised fluid
35:11 ... then from a little fluid (Pickthall)
53:46 (he created) from a drop of seed when it is poured forth (Pickthall)
53:46 From a sperm-drop when lodged (in its place)
56:58 Have ye seen that which ye emit (Pickthall)
56:58 Do you then see? The (human Seed) that ye emit
75:37 Was he not a drop of fluid which gushed forth (Pickthall)
75:37 Was he not a drop of sperm emitted (in lowly form)?
76:2 We create man from a drop of thickened fluid (Pickthall)
76:2 We created Man from a drop of [b]mingled sperm[/b]
77:20 Did We not create you from a worthless water (semen, etc.)? (Al-Hilali & Khan)
80:19 From a sperm-drop He hath created him
86:6-7 He is created from a drop emitted - proceeding from between the backbone and the ribs.

As you can see, mingled sperm is but one contender in the pool of "what humans are made of." And it doesn't really say what it is mingled WITH, certainly not an ovum. And the idea that humans were made from a mix of male and female reproductive fluids came as early as Hippocrates.[/quote]
