Now now--remember, "science" has no objection to the talking donkey, the Portuguese sun dance of 1917, or anything in between. All of those beliefs are perfectly legitimate. It's just Genesis 1-11 that science "knows" could not possibly have happened, and therefore that those who believe in those events should be ridiculed (while getting all sweaty about the aboriginal "dreamtime" and any other creation myth in existence).
BTW--Soferim do not "have fun" with the Torah. You probably have no idea of what is involved in writing Torah Scrolls.
