Science will eventually catch up to the Bible, but until then, why not trust God and listen to his words?

So, what? You're expecting that we're going to start losing our scientific knowledge until it's back down to the level of primitive superstition? I don't quite see that happening, but you're welcome to dream, I guess.
Science will eventually catch up to the Bible SPLAT ...never mind.
Science has far outpaced the Bible, but interestingly enough, it will never be able to reach the answers provided by theology.
Because we need meteorologicall stations, satellites, medicines, computers, and all sort of advancements that, with the interpretation of a book written by shepperds, we would never have.
Ok, I imagine a world where the bible is true, whatever that should mean. Pi in the end equals 3, and the stuff behind the comma is satans influence. If scientists then lean back and listen to the bible, scientific advance would cease.
Dear Free_Thinker,
Science left the bible in the dust long before it was WRITTEN. Even the ancient greeks knew better than that heliocentric crap. Their gawds were pretty cool, too, unlike the mean, abusive jackass rape-apologist of a christian one.
why not trust God and listen to his words?
Why in the name of all that is not holy would a group of scientists, ignore a big book of 'answers' and do it all the hard way? If there are all the answers to everything in the bible, why hasn't science, medicine, surgery and everything else been constant since the inception of your 'big book of answers'?
"No matter how far back we manage to learn the history of the universe, there will always be something before it, and theists can say 'Ah-ha! God!'. Same at the other end. Once we reach the point where we don't know what will happen afterwards (like death - as an atheist, I believe that there is nothing but decay, but I don't know) theists can just say 'God again'." - Fanatic-Templar
Science will eventually catch up to the Bible
Well, the bible is in such an extent and hopelessly behind Science now, and the gap is widening from day to day in such rapid speed,
so your "catching up" reminds me very much of the Black Knight in the movie "Monty Python and The Holy Grail"
Compared with Science, the bible lies on ground in a bloody heap, all limbs hacked off, and still declares itself "invincible", or at least the bible asks to "call it a draw"...

Ancient Greek mathematicians had some idea about the mathematics behind effective wheel construction way before the Bible's notion that Pi = exactly 3:

And the discoveries post-"On the Origin of Species" (the shitloads of such), to say nothing of the repecussions of Sputnik 1's launch in 1957 & the effects such has on the Biblical account(s) of Genesis, I'm afraid your 'God's words simplt can't be trusted.
Too much evidence to the contrary, y'see. Human progress. Science. Gaps being filled.
And your 'God' had better invest in some titanium underpants. Because once the Large Hadron Collider does what it was built to do, your 'God's gonna get royally buttfucked. He'd better be prepared to do a 27 km Goatse.
Lube up, God!
>:D
