When does something need to be written for you to consider it valid?

The Bible was written thousands of years ago. Yet, it was written with the knowledge that: the earth is a sphere- and hangs on nothing, stars numbered in the billions, light is in motion, the evaporation cycle, paths in the sea, winds blow in cyclones, air has weight, etc.

The Bible is a collection of different books from different time periods cobbled together all at once.

It also states that bats are birds, grasshoppers have four legs, rabbits chew cud, that the earth has "four corners" and that you can produce striped animals by having the parents mate while looking at a specific pattern.

The Bible also says that unicorns, cockatrices and sayters are real creatures and the stars in the sky are just little lights that can fall to the ground and be "stomped on"
