Amazingly enough in 'modern days' mathematicians can teach even children geometry.

It would seem to me that that god is implying that his followers are idiots if the only thing they can understand is an egg.

Why, in all of the holy books (muslim, christian or otherwise), is there never any new information given for mankind's benefit? Why must we always wait for science to teach us something new that was previously unknown?
