The main thing I would like to know is: is it possible that Muhammad could have got any of the miracles in the Qur'an from Greeks who already knew e.g: details of embryology (atheists tell me he could have found out from a friend of his who was a physician).

How is it proven that his physician friend learned these things from the Greeks? In order for that to be true, the following would have to be true:
1) The physician in question was educated in a manner such that he was taught these things about embryology despite him being an Arab physician (this would have limited, logically speaking
2) The physician in question related these things about embryology to the Prophet

3) The relation of these things was done prior to the revelation

The physician in question was educated in Yemen. Is it likely that Yemen had received books by Galen, translated them into Greek, and then used them to teach physicians? How likely is it that a Yemeni person at the time knew Greek? Or had read Galen? I have not the slightest idea nor do I care to delve into it, to be perfectly honest, but this reading of things is just based on a series of insane assumptions (outlined above).

I again urge you to look at www.itistruth.org for facts of the embryology in the Qur'an from top doctors and scientists across the world.

Please do not take your understanding of Islam as truth from these scientific miracles. Why is this? If the foundation of your faith is these things, and then you read a single article assailing them, it is assailing the very foundations of your faith.

Do not speak with this man, as a little knowledge of Arabic makes everyone into a scholar now, you see? He is performing a tafseer and translating the Qur'an and applying his own opinion to it thusly. Do not be afraid to leave the discussion. This is a problem with the internet in that everyone is unwilling to leave the discussion. Leave him to his inner death.
