how relevant is the bibe when it comes to science?

1:16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.

the moon is not a light, but only reflects light from the sun


6:4 There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.

why no archaeological evidence of these giants??



Genesis 6:14-15
Make thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch. And this is the fashion which thou shalt make it of: The length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits.

Noah's ark is 450 feet long. The largest wooden ships ever built were just over 300 feet, and they required diagonal iron strapping for support. Even so, they leaked so badly that they had to be pumped constantly. Are we to believe that Noah, with no shipbuilding knowledge, was able to construct a wooden ship longer than any that has been built since?

but not only was the ark too big to be seaworthy, it was far too small to be able to contain the earth's millions of plant and animal species.


Genesis 11:1
And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.

"The whole earth was of one language." This could not be true, since by this time (supposedly around 2400 BCE) there were already many languages, each unintelligible to the others. This is even admitted earlier in Genesis (10:5, 10:20, 10:31) where other languages are mentioned before the tower of Babel was supposedly constructed.


Leviticus
11:6 And the hare, because he cheweth the cud , but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.


hares and coneys are not ruminants and they do not "chew the cud."


Job

5:31 So let all thine enemies perish, O LORD: but let them that love him be as the sun when he goeth forth in his might. And the land had rest forty years.

9:7 Which commandeth the sun, and it riseth not; and sealeth up the stars.


the sun doesn't revolve around the earth nor does it move. the bible promotes geocentricity


Psalm
58:8 As a snail which melteth, let every one of them pass away: like the untimely birth of a woman, that they may not see the sun.


snails don't melt, they only leave a slimy trail as they move along.

bawomolo:

so what do u think of the thread

i think the science is just another way for people to Contradict the Bible. . .bawamolo, i'll really like to know. . . are you a Christian? or do you believe in science?

bawomolo:

i'm atheist but i was raised baptist. science gives a much better explanation of how the earth works compared to the holy books of today.

aww hard to get 

bawomolo:

i'm atheist but i am baptist.

ha!! no wonder. i've been wondering sha. . .but plz dnt mind if i ask. , how do you cope with being an atheist and being a Christian. you've ever heard of this, you cannot worship two God. . .actually there is only one God. . .well, i respect your religion, just answer the question sha

bawomolo:

aww hard to get

there's only one playa in this game o. . . you're playing with yourself

May kelly:

The HOLY BIBLE and Science do not have any thing in COMMON. Science is a man research whereas the HOLY BIBLE is the WORD OF GOD. I rather say that Science is irelevant to the things written in the "HOLY BIBLE which was the TRUE WORD OF GOD - and the only certified and comfirmed HOLY BOOK.

How do you know the bible is the "word of God" how exactly does one verify that? I thought the Bible was written by men who "claimed" to be inspired by God? Do you just take their word for it rather than question it? Science is irrelevant to things written in the word of God, because science and its applications are actually relevant to humans, science refers to any systematic knowledge or practice or practice, one might call it the pursuit of knowledge, I however fail to see how Tehhhh holy bible helps us pursue knowledge rather it preys on people, taking away their ability to think for themselves. That's why you have people trying to defend such idiocies like Noah's ark, the creation story and of course the malignant Narcissist of a god that it promotes. The difference between the bible and science is that science is forever going forward while the bible is forever stagnant wallowing in ignorance and preying on the fear and insecurities of those who believe in it. If people take from the bible what they will, like the message of love, forgiveness and all the ooey gooey stuff that would be perfectly okay, but 80% of the bible is filled with contradictions of how God loves you and at the same time wants to kill you, and this is just laughable to me.

yeah dude, how exactly does that work? being atheist and baptist at the same time?

totally makes sense, but i dnt agree with you sha

yeah dude, how exactly does that work? being atheist and baptist at the same time?

typo, i was raised baptist.

ha!! no wonder. i've been wondering sha. . .but plz dnt mind if i ask. , how do you cope with being an atheist and being a Christian. you've ever heard of this, you cannot worship two God. . .actually there is only one God. . .well, i respect your religion, just answer the question sha

actually no, i meant i was raised baptist but i don't subcribe to the doctrine at all. although the bible is hogwash for the most part, there are few moral lessons that could be found in the bible. most bible texts should be taken allegorically and not literally. how do u know there is one God too, can't there be many God's?? do u think science should take a backseat to the bible.

there's only one playa in this game o.

hata, your heart would crumble in no time

so you think believing in science is the way to know if there's only one God or more gods? omo, so let's say, you think biology will tell you if Lucifer was once an angel or not?
i dnt think that science should even question the Bible at all

bawomolo:

hata, your heart would crumble in no time

eh en? omo, you'll wait a long time for it to crumble o. . .abeg, leave my heart alone, i like it healthy

so you think believing in science is the way to know if there's only one God or more gods? omo, so let's say, you think biology will tell you if Lucifer was once an angel or not?
i dnt think that science should even question the Bible at all

why shouldn't science question the bible at all should we take everything in the bible literally. if the bible is the word of GOD(God is supposed to be right all the time), then why are their parts of the bible that don't agree with scientific facts. do u believe in geocentricity how possible was it for noah to build the ark with the technology present at the time??

eh en? omo, you'll wait a long time for it to crumble o. . .abeg, leave my heart alone, i like it healthy

i would mend it back together after it crumbles

eyah, omo, you'r deep in it. . .dnt worry, i'll pray for you ^{and for myself} sha. . .

bawomolo:

i would mend it back together after it crumbles

i' rather you don't. . .it can't be mendable once broken. so dnt even try. . .i heard that needles and threads are painful

Let me recommend this site (www.lwf.org) to you folks where I got the following:

“And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.
Luke 21:28
I wonder what would happen if scientists began making a human being from the cell of another human being. We are living in strange days, are we not? But I want to tell you; our hope is not to be found in science. There’s no blessing in the book of science. Friend, the blessing is in the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. When I see things like cloning come to pass they do not shake me. Sometimes they grieve me or sadden me, but they do not shake me because I know God’s Word. I know it is the fulfillment of prophecy, and I can say with all of the saints, “Praise God! It’s getting gloriously dark.”
The next time you read something in the paper that shadows the end times, use it as an open door to share the Second Coming of Jesus with someone."

I think the devil is at work in this fellow. You better start thinking of being rapturable, Christ is coming again. When you sink in hell then you'll find answers to your questions.

Aryyor:

^^^ Bawomolo declared he was an atheist and would probably give you a 'lol' if you wished him that while he was here with us.

BTW, he was a very intelligent young man. He commented on some controversial issues yet he argued brilliantly; neither rude, insultive nor proud. He was indeed a gentleman.

Now that he's dead, what if he came to find out that there is indeed God. God, whom he brilliantly argued and reasoned out of his life,
I wonder where Bawomolo is now. Is he in hell? Is he in heaven? Or is he nowhere; in a state of nothingness? I really wonder,

there is God o all atheist are but mere dust,, message to all athiest, free thinkers and pagans.. U all should repent and believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and the ever merciful God will become ur Father.
