quoted most of the Bible verses claiming the world is flat and centre of the universe in the last question, so I hope noone will repeat the same inane arguments. The Bible is just totally useless because it was written by uneducated men, who were more interested in the subjugation of women than anything else.

The Bible, the Quran & Science.

--sura 41, verse 11. God orders the Prophet to speak after inviting him to reflect on the subject of the earth's creation:

"Moreover (God) turned to the Heaven when it was smoke and said to it and to the earth . . ."
There then follow the orders to submit, referred to on page 136.

We shall come back to the aquatic origins of life and examine them along with other biological problems raised by the Quran. The important things to remember at present are the following. a) The statement of the existence of a gaseous mass with fine particles, for this is how the word 'smoke' (dukan in Arabic) is to be interpreted. Smoke is generally made -up of a gaseous substratum, plus, in more or less stable suspension, fine particles that may belong to solid and even liquid states of matter at high or low temperature;

And you still think a person 1400 years ago wrote about this?

Providing at least one single quote or example would help make it actually possible to respond to your question. Are you even pursuing a debate on the issue of scientific beliefs in the bible or just grinding an axe towards religion?

Well right off, I think of Isaiah 40:22 which says "It is He who sits above the circle of the earth,And its inhabitants are like grasshoppers,Who stretches out the heavens like a curtainAnd spreads them out like a tent to dwell in."

This is describing a round earth. A round solid is a ball. Much more correct than other thoughts, and much much earlier than the "Flat Earth" theory of the early middle ages.

The bible does not say the earth is flat.

He sits enthroned above the circle of the earth, and its people are like grasshoppers. He stretches out the heavens like a canopy, and spreads them out like a tent to live in. (Isaiah 40:22)

I have read the Bible and in it there is something that says--He hangs the stars on nothing.
I think that is some pretty good science myself.They are held up by nothing at all.Space is a vacuum.
That flat Earth that you mentioned,where is that in the Bible?

Yes, it does hunnybuns. Science is the true answer. Unfortunately, Christians don't want to be wrong. They just don't. They are the best. They are right. Atheists rule.

You are correct sir. Why any one would want to follow a religion based on a clearly biased and fictional book I just can't comprehend.
