...and one of their favorites seems to be that "science once thought that the earth was flat; they were wrong, etc. etc."
But, wait; was it science that said that the earth was flat?...
"Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be removed for ever." Psalms 104:5
Well, maybe God didn't mean that the earth was flat, just that it sits in one place and doesn't move, and that the sun revolves around it. After all,
"The LORD reigneth, he is clothed with majesty; the LORD is clothed with strength, wherewith he hath girded himself: the world also is stablished, that it cannot be moved." Psalms 93:1
"The sun also ariseth, and the sun goeth down, and hasteth to his place where he arose." Ecclesiastes 1:5
So how could scientists have gone so far astray? How is it not plain to them that the earth sits motionless and the sun revolves around the earth? It's all right there in the bible, after all...
