"For God's sake?" I thought you didn't believe in Him?

I'm not really sure how to respond to this -- it seems too pathetic to take notice of.

Boy; what ever do you mean "the scientific standard of truth?" That could be as variable as the weather; depending upon who you ask.

Hey, absolute fiction! While there are different models of the scientific method, academics have narrowed it down to a few in which variation between is not at all like the weather.

It is common knowledge that the Bible is in harmony with science; it is not an opposing force which contests true scientific principles.

I'll assume you are the allegorical type. I'm not criticizing that until there is occassion for it.

One of many exampleThis is the Bible was the first book to say in print that the world was not in fact flat; and that it was round.

First of all, you are wrong -- the Bible compares the shape of the world to a map (with four corners), aka, a flat square), and this was used as basis for centuries as to why the world was flat. The belief gradually died out because respect for Aristotle was greater than determination to get dogmatic about such a moot point. Second of all, that is not a point of evidence. for your view the Bible does not contradict scientific principles. You need to actually casually relate it to the logical form of science and show how the two are non-contrary.
I think it is a sign of desperation you would mention something so absurd as a proof that the Bible does not contradict science.

You don't know what you are talking about here; because you don't know the Bible.

Read the Bible, Dead Sea Scrolls, Gnostic Bible, and Qu'ran. Snap.
