10 Scientific Facts Misunderstood in the Bible

[@DidWeMakeIt]

Once, years ago, I criticized you for what I believed to be an error in your logic. I never expected you to respond, yet you did. You showed me how flawed my own viewpoint was. I can honestly say you're the reason I dropped my baseless beliefs and embraced logic. Thanks Aron, truly.

[@manuell3505]

I think it involves statistics. What if someone considers the formation of the stars to the evolution of life "creation'"? It shows that the position you took isn't clear. You can't argue from it. You can't assume literal creationism for the whole of bible believers. That's only a tiny part of them. Same problem with the description of the earth being a circle that's placed in nothing. That's part of the view people had, not a geometric failure. There was no such thing as geometry. The horizon/skyline is a circle around you. The astronomical movement of the earth through space doesn't take away the solid ground you stand on, which only moves during earthquakes. What is now known as the gravitational field of the earth was seen as the establishment of the earth, likely on multiple pillars because everything falls down so that's required. Only birds can float. Most logical question today would be on what those pillars are standing, but nobody was there in the time, only a few philosophers.

[@Rudol_Zeppili]

Can you think of one field of science that was not founded by Bible-believing Christians? I can only think of the discovery of DNA (discovered by two atheists). Other than that, what has your atheism, which you falsely label as ‘science,’ ever produced? In fact, even DNA was a continuation, not of Darwin (who has been scientifically wrong and useless), but of the Christian monk, Mendel. Even Darwin proved himself wrong, saying that, if his theory is correct, there should be innumerable transitional fossils. Yet, atheists cannot find one that is not without controversy - even among evolutionists! Can you name even one? Therefore, according to Darwin, his own theory is false. You cannot say that I did not warn you. God will judge every lie and every treason. If you want to live without morals, if you go into eternity without God, know that hell plays by its own rules. In fact, Jesus said that there will be torturers there. Hell is eternal and it lasts forever. Yet, Christ died on a Cross so that you can be made right with God. Jesus Christ is the light of the world.

The longest wooden hull ship ever built was a six-masted schooner named "Wyoming" that launched in 1909. With a deck length of 350 ft, it was shorter than the 300 cubits of Noah's Ark. She was so long that the planks would twist and let water into the hold, so pumps had to run constantly in order to keep her afloat. Noah had no such pumps. In 1924 she floundered and sank with all hands aboard.

@@SaanMigwell Technically I think box is a better description of what "ark" means than barge. Regardless, a wooden vessel of the length described would have absolutely taken on water. Interestingly, an apologist named Ken Hamm built a "replica" of Noah's Ark which is landlocked, and basically just an expensive museum of lies, and they made an insurance claim a few years back due to, of all things, water damage caused by rain. I'm not making that up.

@@SaanMigwell Wouldn't work either. Ship's hull is a purpose-built structure *made* to withstand the stresses sea put on it.

This reminds me of another Jehovah Witness story when I attended their version of Sunday School at age 12 or so. One time they passed out these cards for us to carry in the case of an accident and we were rendered unconscious. It was card stating we refused any blood transfusions or organ donations even to save our lives because we were Witnesses.

Instead of blaming the other peasants, blame the people who have bought and paid for both sides of the political lines and own the media that openly admits that their job is to control what you think (Legit, an MSNBC anchor literally said that). Instead of trying to make everything a tribalistic "Us vs Them" just like the old religions do with anyone that disagrees with them apply some actual skepticism to all forms of "power" be it religions, political, media, everything. I love how the "skeptics" stopped being skeptical, the people in the camp of "reason" have lost all reason, the "Free thinkers" are now mind-slaves to the billionaire media narrative, how those who once cared about scientific facts are now some of the most fervent science deniers. As a side note, the US Healthcare system is broken but also the world leader in care and breakthroughs as well as speed. The UK makes you wait weeks for emergency care, the Canadians are telling war veterans to kill themselves because of their PTSD, and the quality of care across the world is objectively worse in almost every other country. Yes the US Healthcare system is genuinely beyond cartoonishly evil and the insurance con makes it criminally expensive (The list price of my recently broken arm's repairs all together no doubt totals over $200,000, a simple 30-45 minute helicopter ride, which was required because the local ER was an absolute clown show, is $70,000), it is genuinely superior in most cases to the rest of the world in terms of quality and speed. There is a reason so many doctors from abroad come to the US, and money isn't the only one (Though certainly a factor).

@verdatum I'm convinced a big part of Comfort's motivation is a pathological fear of death, and the finality of it. So much of his schtick is trying to get people to go along with his prompts that they're terrible, and they'll die without getting into heaven. Like I don't think it seems to matter to him that they affirm his Biblical vote is correct, per se, but that they agree that they had better be good with his god when they die. No matter where in his lies about biology he starts at, he quickly shifts to this dying thing. And I'm not getting that he is trying to save souls from hell, his methods and BS word games don't mesh with that idea, to me. He just seems to _need_ people to affirm his notions about dying, like the more people he can have agree, the more likely it is that his fantastical wishful thinking about heaven will be true.

Here you go Baller. Enjoy the Cog Dis. Let’s do a simple thought experiment using simplified math and the supposed velocities of globe-thinking: The globe model's supposed avg orbital speed of earth around the sun: 67,000mph, & the globe model's supposed rotational speed of earth at the equator: ~1000mph To simplify the thought experiment, assume the rotational axis of the earth is perpendicular to the plane of it's rotation around the sun. Then at 12 noon, standing on the equator your total velocity including orbit speed + rotational speed would be 68,000mph in the direction of the orbit. Simply standing in that same place for 12 hours until midnight would have to then place you on the opposite side of the ball moving at only 66,000mph (orbital speed - rotational speed). That would mean a 2000mph deceleration/acceleration over 12 hours or 166mph change every hour. ...not to mention if you stayed in that same spot for another 6 months it would have to be dark at "noon" and mid-day bright at "midnight."

Just one note on number 3: The original story, from western India, likely the Indus Valley, has the same characters, but is more realistic. The ark is circular, hence it cannot capsise. When they say pairs of animals referencing their "world," they mean it in the small sense, as in, "You are part of my world," i.e., "a part of what I know." That's why people used to say, "the *known* world," because they knew there was more yet to be known to themselves. So, somewhere in western India, a man had his sons help him make a huge circular raft, into/onto which he and they could load pairs of all the animals they found useful, should a flood come. A monsoon ensued, a flood came, they loaded up the farm and family, floated around, the rain subsided, the waters went down, and they found themselves on high ground, from whence they continued their lives, presumably using the boat materials to make their homes. Their descendants populated the local land. The End. And then the story went west, and into Gilgamesh, among others, and thence west again, into the Hebrew Bible. Good stories get shared and modified, as you know. Meanwhile, "A fart asked her sister, "Do you think I'm doing the right thing?"
