Indeed I do remember and I'm on it.

Were we not having a debate about muscles and bones only one page ago?
And besides the muscles are not wrapped around the bones, they are grown, which is a whole different thing. It's not like bones are fleshless until the 8th week at which point they're suddenly clothed with muscles. Different connected tissues develop into different things (in some cases simultaniously, but that, as it seems, is not the issue).

That relates to everything I said in my initial post. My later posts then stated that my initial posts' argument was wrong. I then moved onto the actual argument (see my previous two posts on this thread). They ayat doesn't contradict what you have stated since it's dealing directly with the fact that the bones were clothed with flesh (aka muscles - which is true). Now in honesty, you could argue that hey maybe that's not really a miracle and more of common sense - which I am completely open to as I am not a scholar of embryology or the Quran (I apologise if I lead anyone to believe this with my actions). But, the question raised in the initial post seemed to be dismissing this ayat as being incorrect since he (and eventually both you and I) thought it was dealing with bones and muscles growth formation - it is not!
In other words, the whole point of my last two posts were to show that the initial point (i.e the guy dismissing the ayat) that he is wrong in making that statement since the ayat doesn't deal with what he is dismissing it of.
Now, as far as embryology goes, I don't know any more on this topic. I will look into it and will gladly discuss it with you. But the entire point of this thread hinged on that one statement (which everyone seemed to have forgotten, including myself!). Thus it can now be closed.
Again, I'd be happy to investigate more into embryology as a science and discuss it with you, but this particular thread has been dealt with sufficiently.
Thanks for the conversation that we did have. I learned quite a bit and understood a whole lot more. Thanks once again and peace!
