Science is slow in discovering truth, but in time it always proves the Bible is Scientifically accurate. More?

I believe in the Bible.\nThe Bible says that the world was created in six literal 24 hour days, is around 6000 years old, that man and dinosaurs lived together (being created in the same week), and that there was a flood that totally covered the entire planet, killing off the vast majority of human, plant and animal life on the planet.\nThe amount of scintific evidence that supports this theory is simply staggering, but rarely given a chance to be heard or seen due to the wide-spread acceptance of the evolution theory.\n\nDid you know that the earth's rotation is slowing down? So if you back up in time a few million years, you have to speed the earth's rotation up proportionatly - you can't even go back a few million before the earths rotation becomes so fast that life on this planet is not possible anymore. - Much less 4.6 billion years.\n\nThe orbit of the moon is growing a little bit farther away from the earth every year, so if you back that one up a few million years, the moon would have been so close to the earth that the tide would have come so high it would wipe out all life on the  planet twice a day. - 4.6 billion years ago, it would have to have been touching the earth,  not oribiting the earth.\n\nI could go on for many pages like this, but follow the link below to find out more about that the Bible says about creation, and what scientific examination of these claims have shown.

Nostradamus had predictions that has come true so far and as far as the bible goes, No one knows. The bible was man written. How do you know that those men just had to sit down and figure out where we came from and that so they did. And today those words are read by many. But it is still a theory. Not a truth. Some chose to believe it, and some don't.

This answer was the most funny:\n\n"The whole Bible is the truth. Science is not always right you know. Ancient scientist once believed that the earth was flat! I think we have come a long way! :) "\n\nSo according to her, progress is going back to stone age thinking.\n\nSkygod make world in 7 day. Me made of dirt. You made of me rib. Whoowhooo. Me want banana.

The whole idea is a fiction.  I realized by the time I was eight years old that the Biblical tale of creation could not be reconciled with the scientific evidence, and since science is obviously right (it works!), the Bible had to go.

the bible is about philosophy and religion  and a history of a people.    It is not a science text book. it does not use empirical methods, nor does it require them to be used.  If  you believe in the Bible  it's because of your faith not your reason. \nA basic idea in science is that if light travels at  186 000 miles per second today on earth  it  also does in the rest of the universe both in the past and in the future and if oxygen has 8 electrons on earth then it also has them on Saturn.. These and many others are the building blocks for a sane reasonable universe.\nthose  who try to conform  the universe to biblical teaching  must out of sheer necessity  create a  crazy world  where a day isn't t really a day and a year isn't really a year and all of your reliable baselines are skewed.. it becomes lunacy.\nThe war is over ,Galileo Copernicus and Newton were right \nThe biblical version of the universe is wrong -give up

A wonderful example of how some biblical literalists will twist science into pretzel-knots to fit the Bible, rather than find ways to reconcile their faith with scientific evidence.\n\nBiblical literalism ... using the Bible as a first-source for what scientific conclusions are acceptable, and then using twisted scientific logic to reach them ... is a terrible trend.  Rather than strengthen the appeal of religion, it makes it sound like it's coming from the mouths of fools ... which is unfortunate, because religion, and Christians, have much to offer in the way of *moral* teachings.    \n\nAnd those Christians who do get convinced that Biblical literalism is necessary, end up having to defend scientifically illiterate positions ... either they have to accept a system of scientific knowlege that is laughably archaic and incompatible with modern scientific consensus (e.g., that Tycho Brahe's model of the universe makes sense, or distant stars move faster than the speed of light, or the earth is 6,000 years old) ... or they have to reject science outright.  Either way, this kind of voluntary ignorance is tragic ... and IMO an insult to God who gave us brains.

Bible Accuracy Verified\n\nAlthough the Bible is a very old book, it is noteworthy that many ancient Bible manuscripts verify it. There are literally thousands of these ancient manuscripts in libraries and private collections throughout the world. They prove that today’s Bible has withstood the ravages of time and has been accurately copied and transmitted down to our day.\n\nThis can be checked out. For instance, the long-existing Institute for New Testament Textual Studies in Germany has made about 95 percent of its approximately 5,300 handwritten copies of the Christian Greek Scriptures available for scientific study, either on microfilm or in picture form. Thus the interested visitor, whether layman or scientific expert, can be shown, under expert guidance, just how exact the transmission of the Bible text down to our 20th century has been. The interval between the time the Christian Greek Scriptures were originally written and the writing of the oldest extant papyrus manuscripts is very short, not more than 25 years.

No, I don't belive in it, but we are all Intitled to our own opinions.. If you compair the words of the bible to what modern scientists are coming up then the bible's right and there is no proof of scientests being right.. but yeah.. if your opinion is that evolution is true. .then I'm not trying to push anything at you...

The Bible is true because it is truth. Aside from all historical references what other manuscript contains more answers about life, character and the heart and answers them with accuracy that truly hits the core of man. Only the God who created can advise and maintain his creation. Let any man read JUST one of the gospels and dispute the simple truths Jesus spoke. This is an answer that could go on for days. \nHEBREWS 4:12 and the list of scriptures go on and on......

Christianity and Judaism DO NOT agree with modern science...\n\nIt turns out most Christians don't read their bible, so I will do it for them.\n\nGenesis 1;11-13 And God went on to say: "Let the earth cause grass to shoot forth, vegetation bearing seed, fruit trees yielding fruit according to their kings, the seed of which is in it according to its kind. Then God saw that it was good. And there came to be evening and there came to be morning, a THIRD DAY\n\nGenesis 1;14 And God went on to say: "Let luminaries come to be in the expanse of the heavens to make a division between the day and night; and they must serve as signs and for seasons and for days and years.\n\nshoot on down to...\n\nGenesis 1;19 And there came to be evening and there came to be morning, a FOURTH DAY.\n\nThat there says grass existed BEFORE THE SUN.\n\nI may not be a science major but damn.... that sure does contradict anything anyone has thus said about Science and Creationism being complementary.\n\nP.S. You would be surprised how many Christians don't know that. And its in the FIRST page of the book they so blindly put their faith in.

I believe that the bible is the true word of God.  In the first book of the bible, it tells how God created man. I know people will argue that the world could not have been created in 6 days and the Lord rested on the 7th.  To God, one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years is as one day.  I don't believe in Darwin's theory, I believe in God's creation.

Good question.  The Bible has proven itself thru Bible Prophecy, which has been fulfilled with 100% accuracy. You can do a web search on Bible Prophecy and find some answers, note the dates it was prophesied and the dates it was fulfilled.  If you are interested I can e-mail you close to 40 prophecies that were fulfilled thru Christ...don't know of any other religion that can claim that about themselves.  Bible Prophecy does make for a good study.  History also proves the Bible as does Archeology.

Being an historian I will reserve judgement until I see the evidence personally.  I've NEVER read from a credible source that scientists have stated that the Bible to be one of the most accurate books ever written.\n\n\nShow ME the source and I will decide for myself.

Science should always be encouraged. The Quran says there are signs we just have  to find them.

Archeology is a science and the science is not static like the "true"  Bible. In the Bible all the thinks are true without question, they are "God" words.  In science we question all the thinks and the true of today maybe be false tomorrow and this concept is not bad is really good. If you are a believer your true is based on faith, if you believe in the science your true is based on proof and the proof are generally changing. Yes there are a  lot of discrepancies between the evidences. Are you willing to accept the differences even if they point that Bible is incorrect?

God promised to preserve his Word, not the English language. He knew about the translations, and the annomalies that may arise.\n\nYou can bet the translations (not all of them), but a few of them, potray the message in a clear and concise manner.\n\nWhile the enemy may taint some avenues of the Gospel, the Lord will not allow them all to be corrupted.\n\nI posted this in another thread:\n\nThe Bible is made up of 66 books, written by 40 authors on 3 continents, using 3 languages, and penned over a 1600 year span of time, yet it uniquely fits together without contradiction, making up one volume we call, “The Bible”.\n\nCharles Spurgeon said, "This Bible is the anvil on which many a hammer of critics has been worn out." It has truly withstood every test and trial while remaining the undisputed bestseller of all time! Over 1/2 billion Bibles were printed in1997 alone!\n\nWhat makes the Bible so different from all other books? It's incredible accuracy both historically, scientifically, geographically, and prophetically.\n\nArcheological findings, have proven the Bible’s literal accuracy. The Dead Sea Scrolls discovered in 1947, substantiate the accuracy of the Old Testament scriptures written 2,500 to 3,500 years ago!\n\nThe Bible revealed many truths thousands of years ago long before they were discovered. According to the Encyclopedia Britannica; Volume 4 page 937 "Columbus discovered America by Bible prophecy rather than by astronomy." Columbus believed the Bible and convinced the Queen after reading to her the following scriptures:\n\nIsaiah 40:22 (about 800 B.C.)\n\n"It is he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth..."\n\nJob 26:7 (Almost certainly over 1,000 B.C.)\n\n"He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and hangeth the earth upon nothing."\n\nMan thought the earth was flat and perhaps sat on the back of a turtle, just 500 years ago, yet God revealed the earth's true Geography over 3,500 years ago, a circle that hangs on nothing.\n\nIncredible as it may sound, we probably killed our first president, George Washington, by bleeding him to death. A practice called blood letting, the cutting of ones wrist and removing life giving blood. If we had only read and believed God's word:\n\nLeviticus 17:11\n\n"For the life of the flesh is in the blood..."\n\nThere are hosts of incredible proofs like these throughout the Bible. The water cycle and evaporation process is revealed in Ecclesiastes 1:6-7 and Psalms 135. \n\nThe Bible is the only book that foretells the future with 100% accuracy. It foretold the birthplace of Jesus 700 years before He was born! (Micah 5:2), That He would be crucified over 500 years before this inhumane practice ever began! Details about Jesus’ crucifixion such as: His hands and feet would be pierced, His beard would be torn out, His garments would be gambled for, and that He would die between two thieves, and be buried in a rich mans tomb (Isaiah 53, Psalms 22). Jesus fulfilled 30 different prophecies in just one day. There were about 300 prophecies that foretold His first coming and over 500 that tell of His second coming.\n\nOne such prophecy was fulfilled and witnessed by millions of people alive today! On May 14th, 1948, three million Jews from all over the world speaking 85 different languages returned to a tiny piece of desolate desert land, that most had never seen. God foretold of this incredible event through His word over 2,500 years ago.\n\nJeremiah 30:3\n\n"For, lo, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will bring again the captivity of my people Israel and Judah, saith the LORD: and I will cause them to return to the land that I gave to their fathers, and they shall possess it."\n\nEzekiel 36:24\n\n"For I will take you (Jews) from among the heathen, and gather you out of all countries, and will bring you into your own land."\n\nZechariah 8:8\n\n"And I will bring them, and they shall dwe
