If you can't read and comprehend, you can't read and understand the Bible. It's not written at a 6th-grade level, either. You need some research skills to learn (for example) that the Greek word often translated as "dogs" really denotes male prostitutes.

In addition, "The heavens declare the glory of God, and the firmament proclaims his handiwork." Knowledge and science that are true lead us to a greater appreciation of God and His greatness.

"Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is gracious, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things."
