You've inadvertently switched from "blbical texts" to the bible as "a book." I prefer to address them as texts authored and inspired by the Creator, and as such, they have not been "heavily and repeatedly edited." They have been been faithfully copied and preserved, much more than any other written texts. Not only so, but those who respect their authority have taken great pains to leave them alone and let them say what the original Author intends.
While not intended as detailed scientific texts, they do lay down a terrific foundation upon which science can operate. The fact is, unless the universe were intelligently designed and filled with intelligent beings, there would be no such thing as science. I doubt the Creator is amused by those who, in the name of science, deny His gift of an intelligently designed creation.
Got any hard evidence for that? Evidence giving them preference over, say, the Koran?

If by 'Science', you mean the systematic process of trying to discover the processes and order governing the behavior of the universe, then it certainly doesn't require an Intelligent Designer.
And I don't really care whether *your* presumed creator is amused or not. :^)
