(Excerpt from "Evolution Vs. Creation")
...the Bible is full of scientific facts, and the so-called science of evolution is the one that over time has proven itself to be the one that simply cannot stand up to scrutiny.
Do you like being on the cutting edge of knowledge? The Bible has always been years ahead of scientists, and is one of the most advanced science books around.

Hilarious! While it is in fact true that the Bible was once "cutting edge" in it's depiction of science, that was several thousand years ago.
The Bible has nothing in it that wasn't known to people 4,000 years ago, and in many cases, even less.
Bullshit! I call bullshit! Whether intentional or not, this is simply bullshit. There isn't anything even remotely scientific in the Buybull. Other than Goddidit, what do you have? Oh, and did I call this bullshit?
Guys, go and look at the video on YouTube.
Funny, I always found the Book of Armaments in particular to be rather outdated. I mean, it actually prescribed black powder for the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch. If it was truly divinely inspired they'd know to use something with a little more bang in it, C4 or something like that.
At 2:11, this fool video claims that scientific advances are listed in the Bible before man discovered them. They give a scientific advancement and a citation, but don't say what the citation says.
Funny how they only say "well, the bible mentioned that too," after some scientist (christian or not) made the hypothesis, performed the experiment, and published the results.
@The Watcher: Somebody ran that crap in our local paper and my wife sent me a copy. We have an agreement about not discussing religion like this, so I warned her about going this route, and asked her if she really wanted to do this kind of thing, and then I picked each one of them apart showing that it was claiming victory after the fact. It's never come up again. :)
I have several questions:
Funny how they only say "well, the bible mentioned that too," after some scientist (christian or not) made the hypothesis, performed the experiment, and published the results. Right, and they often back it up with the sudden discovery that their holy book needs to be "interpreted correctly" in a certain way. In fairness, though, it isn't just Christians who do so.
The bible contains not a single scientific fact. It contains bizzare claims of magical cures involving bird blood and bird shit to treat illness.
Biblical 'scientific facts':
It's true people! A recently uncovered lost excerpt for Deuteronomy reveals the truth. It takes place while Moses, having come down from Sinai, is divulging the second law to the people.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
