Real science. Knowledge gained via scientific method and research.

Now, using your arguments that the bible is a science text, pray tell how, using your limited world view, we would learn, predict and intrepret this using only the bible as a textbook, as you seem to want to do when it comes to evolution as a science.

Real science. Knowledge gained via scientific method and research.

"Real" being the key word. I'm all for knowledge, any kind. And the fact we are told we only use 10% of our brain, how much more are we capable of? God gave us more than we can imagine.

the bible is a science text,

I never said it was a science text! Let's keep it real and not spin.

your limited world view

My world view is not limited, in fact, it's the opposite. The world view is limited; it doesn't have all the answers. According to Bible prophecy, knowledge shall be increased in the last days and, IMHO, knowledge is increasing at a ever-increasing pace which helps us all greatly but is only temporary.

It's your faith in the 'world' and all it can teach you that keeps you limited to true knowledge. But, then again, some don't have the right perspective to even ask the important questions and remain limited. "My people suffer for a lack of knowledge'.

we would learn, predict and intrepret this using only the bible as a textbook,

Look at it this way, the universe is complex - man is on a ever searching quest to learn, predict, interpret - which is good but at the same time We know we can't do much about the weather. They warn us of impending storms but still some tempt fate and don't take the necessary precautions. God gives us warnings, also. Unfortunately, some tempt their eternal fate. Perhaps, one day you will see the Awesomeness of God as you study the universe.

as you seem to want to do when it comes to evolution as a science.

Evolution is not a science. Evo's claim it is in their limited knowledge but it isn't. Their base is wrong so nothing right can follow. God created it all just the way He liked it and in six days.

Next to the Awesomeness of God, we are each like one grain of sand. When man is puffed up in his own knowledge/education, it keeps him limited in the ways of God. We will NEVER understand the magnitude of the power of God. But with humility, we can accept it. Exchanging pride for humility when looking for Truth is key. Future studies in any area will then start with the right perspective.
