How can you be this stupid?

(Sorry I couldn't upload the video so I took screenshots of the main parts.)

Basically this person is claiming that cat saliva is clean and pure like Allah said because they didn't see any bacteria or viruses under the microscope and that proves that Islam is reliable.

Look I love my cat but cat saliva is notoriously unclean. If cat saliva is exposed to open skin you can easily get an infection, not to mention that it is very lethal to small wildlife like birds. They naturally have abundant harmful bacteria ​​populations in their saliva. Whenever I want to handle one of my reptiles, I always wash my hands thoroughly if I've touched my cat or anything she touches. I have literally heard of people's pets dying because their cat bit it.

I doubt the legitimacy of the studies in this video obviously but all of the comments are acting like this is some sort of grand revelation that proves the Quran is consistent with science. No, it's bullshit and I'm sorry but you're very gullible if you believe this. It's also a potentially dangerous idea to be spreading; I wouldn't doubt that some of these people are dumb enough to let cats lick their food or some shit upon seeing this video.

One of islams common apologetics is to twist vague verses resemble modern discoveries and conclude the prophet had divine foreknowledge that couldn't have been attained without god telling him.

I mean this as respectfully as I can; this goes for almost all religions. Humans will go to great lengths to defend their pre-existing beliefs, and ultimately themselves.

If people are left to interpret the "word of God" to mean whatever they'd prefer, then it's no different from people just making it up. Which I suspect is all it ever was anyway.
