Or, as Galileo famously quoted 16th century Cardinal Caesar Baronius, "The Bible was written to show us how to go to heaven, not how the heavens go."

Cardinal Baronius was one of the greatest Catholic philologists and apologists. It's more than a little ironic that a staunch atheist such as yourself quotes him as an authority.

ERRR! Wrong, but thanks for playing.

Well, one would imagine that a Cardinal just might be an authority on the Bible. But I guess you know better, eh?

I was not aware that orionblamblam has identified himself as an atheist. Do you have a reference to a post where he has done this?
