Actually, our understanding of physics is already in the Bible. If Renaissance thinkers had bothered to read Isaiah, they would have noticed that God said that He holds up the "sphere of the earth" -- completely debunking that flat earth theory. It is said that Columbus took out his ships upon that scripture alone.

Yep. Those heathen renaissance thinkers should have just gotten into their time machine and traveled to 1961 and got a copy of the 'New American Standard Bible' or to 1993 for a copy of 'The Message Bible' (the only versions that have a differing translation of Isa 40:22: 'vault' and 'ball').
The dummies!

< snip gold nonsense> So I'd say that the Bible is pretty much ahead of the ball on physics and science.

No it's not and neither are you.

Lying would be stating what I know not to be true as true.

I thought about it, but it would take more than one sentence to show what she was getting at, so it's too long for the list.

Yeah, I know, I always show up late to the threads.

But by analogy to the "abiogenesis is not evolution" dictum, shouldn't we allow that the "purified gold is transparent" more likely comes from Revelations and is therefore not strictly speaking part of "creationism" ;-)

Cheers!
