The Bible is not a science book, yet it is scientifically accurate. Many concepts were listed in the Bible hundreds or even thousands of years before being recorded elsewhere

When I was a christian, I realized something: the bible is NOT a book of science or history, it's a book concerned with theology and spirituality. When I wanted to learn about science, I read a science book. When I wanted to learn history, I read a history book. When I wanted to learn about god, I read the bible. The bible is full of scientific and historical errors. Furthermore, there is nothing in the bible which cannot be found in earlier texts or texts writen at or around the same time.
Yeah, like, just yesterday I found out insects have 4 legs, and that the bible has been saying that all along.
Of course, the insect died shortly after I made it biblically compatible, but teh buy-bull is true i says!
And is filled with so much allegory, contradictions, and errors, but you love insisting it's 'right'. Do you know the definition of insanity?
Important concepts people would one day need to know about like computers, the Internet, television, MP3s, and turbojet engines.
check your grammar, science and babble cant be in the same sentence
*note that I wrote "babble" instead of "bible", in the hopes of being grammaticaly correct, I replaced those words so i wouldnt have to write science and bible in the same sente.....crap
"The Bible is not a science book, yet it is scientifically accurate"
Where's the detailed diagrams, formulae & equations describing in exact, precise detail HOW God 'created' the universe, the world & all the life on it in the Bible, then?
Oh, that's right. It doesn't. Ergo, what you (& the Bible) say is nothing more than superstitious fundy bollocks.
QED.
That's why we have genetics labs, the Hubble Space Telescope (& various space probes sent out), and the LHC. And scientists with enquiring minds. And who tell everyone about their findings in publications such as Scientific American, et. al.
This is why Science WINS. And religion FAILS.
He's right you know. Without the bible we wouldn't know that insects have 4 legs or that bats are birds. The bible also taught us a lot about astrophysics like, for example, the earth is the centre of the universe, the sun revolves around the earth and it's possible for the sun to stop in its orbit in order to make a day longer.
On the other hand, many concepts in the Bible were recorded elsewhere hundreds or even thousands of years before being recorded in the Bible.
Can you even name one single thing from the Bible that is scientifically accurate? Btw, if God is omniscient, how come only things and places known to the Middle Eastern sheep-herders are mentioned in the Bible? God ought to know about North and South America, Oceania, Japan, surely, as he supposedly created them.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
