heres a neat verse...Isaiah 47:13-14 (NIV translation): All the counsel you have received has only worn you out! Let your astrologers come forward, those stargazers who make predictions month by month, let them save you from what is coming upon you. Surely they are like stubble; the fire will burn them up. They cannot even save themselves from the power of the flame. Here are no coals to warm anyone; here is no fire to sit by.

If that is your attempt to support a literal Bible as a scientific text, please point to chapter and verse that describes:

* The make up of an atom
* The periodic table of elements
* RNA, DNA and the Genome
* Electricity — its properties and how to use it
* Boolean logic and its application to computing
* Computers
* Weather — sources and prediction
* The age of the Earth
* Planets and stars (astrology)

Isaiah does give a warning against astrology — he warned about those who would decry science even back then.
