Default Debunking the Myth that Science Disproves the Bible

Science was born from man’s desire to acquire knowledge with greater certainty and objectivity than is available from “authoritative” sources and “expert” opinions. Since human opinion is fallible, a method was invented to provide greater objectivity through the testability of ideas ...

I'm not sure what you are getting at. You do realize there is a difference between the Bible and the Koran, right?

If you sum the written truths of science that have been disproved by new scientific discoveries you could fill the library of congress.

So how true is it really?

The article in the link proves the above pic false.

You could say the same with all of the bibles and religious writing from all religions around the world. And they all believe theirs to be the truest.

So how is yours the truest?

You say all bibles, I say all but the Holy Bible written by the one true God. God that all other gods are compared to.

Just because other religions may be wrong, doesnt mean they are all wrong.

I'm amused by people who try to use science to disprove the Bible and those who try to use the Bible to disprove science. Both are ignorant as far as I'm concerned.

I really don't see science trying to disprove the bible either. I don't think many scientist have some secret vendetta against religion.

Scientists have creation @ 4.5 billion yrs. ago through the study of earth, moon, meteors, etc. Literal translation of the Bible has creation @ 6 to 10 thousand yrs. based on a 7 "day" creation. Just because man has to understand things in a time frame doesn't equate to God who is not of this temporal dimension, Another possibility is that things were sped up during creation, bottom line man cannot disprove the Bible, which is the point of MG's thesis, IMO

The fact that you guys are arguing--on a fishing forum, mind you--about a subject that will never be settled is hillarious.

Why can't people just believe what they want to believe, and everyone else just mind their own Gosh Damn Freaking Business?!?!

The sphere of science is the laws of nature (the natural world) as determined my repeatable experiment. When limited to its proper sphere and executed properly, it is very good at testing hypotheses and eliminating errors.

The sphere of the Bible is things of the spirit and how the supernatural interacts with the natural. This is a sphere about which science is incapable of speaking. People of faith who are knowledgeable about science usually only doubt science when it reaches beyond its sphere of the natural world and begins to make claims about things that belong to the sphere of the Bible.

The point of the linked article is to articulate more clearly how people are pushing science beyond its appropriate sphere when they claim that its conclusions somehow contradict the Bible.
