"There's many inaccuracies in the Bible concerning dates, times, characters, etc., not to mention two Bible stories about Creation."

we diverge at this point......I believe the bible is completely accurate..... particularly as it is inspired by God himself who is perfect.....just short on details sometimes.

God wants to reveal his plan for salvation to us. He doesn't care whether or not the dates or times are always accurate or whether or not it reveals historical truth. The two Creation stories along with the rest of Genesis 1-11 are clearly allegorical, espeicaly Genesis 1 as well as the story of Noah's Ark which are polemics against Babylonian myths.

You are correct, there are no inaccuracies in the Bible. The stated inaccuracies are points made by people that do not know the story nor has read the Bible. The Bible is completely accurate in all it's predictions as it is accurate as even today. So, don't worry......you are correct. Oh, by the way, even the details are there.....extreme details.
