Two seas which meet but do not mix - Quran analyzed

1400 years ago ALLAH mentioned the following verses in the Quran

It is He Who has let free the two bodies of flowing water: One palatable and sweet, and the other salt and bitter; yet has He made a barrier between them, a partition that is forbidden to be passed. 
[Quran 25:53]

He has let free the two bodies of flowing water, meeting together. Between them is a Barrier which they do not transgress
[Quran 55:19-20]


Until recently no one quite knew what this actually meant. But thanks to advances in science we have now found out that there are indeed two seas, one salty and the other sweet but even though they meet they do not mix. This can be seen in the Strait of Gibraltar where the Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea meet.

Watch the following documentary which I THINK is from HarunYahya.com and the actual video where a ship crosses the two seas

    Proving the existence of God with Quran and Science

    In 2007 I watched a talk by Dr. Zakir Naik on PeaceTV which is a free cable channel. This talk was one of the best speeches I have ever heard and it really inspired me and changed my life for the good. The topic was "Is the Quran God's Word?" .This confirmed my beliefs and cleared most of the doubts I had about Islam and Quran. 

    But for me and many others the most inspirational part of the entire talk is where he uses the Scientific facts mentioned in the Quran more than 1400 years ago to prove to an atheist the existence of GOD almighty. So I decided to make two videos by extracting this section of the talk.
