Thank you Starboy. I now remember most of that. Maybe its time for a new translation to fit the modern world. I'm sure a wo/man of God could do it "Right".
*wink* *wink* *nod* *nod* …. Sure a new "translation".

How do people actually believe this, I tend to think. I just remembered one thing everyone said beside just to have faith. They said it was mainly speaking in metaphors and was to be taken that way only.
Many people ask this question but for some reason no one seriously tries to find an answer. It is the case that biblical literalism is spreading like wildfire through the US population. Those folks will hiss at you if you even suggest interpreting the bible metaphorically. I think it is a very interesting question. Why are there so many people that are so set on taking the bible literally? What in the world do these people hope to gain from it? What is the real agenda of these religious leaders?

Ahh but the Bible of science has had itself many changes and will forever change until humanity ceases to exist.
What bible of science? There ain't no such thing. What would be the point of being a scientist if there was one?
