The Bible also makes testable predictions which have been verified.

Can you cite these please. I'm intrigued.

Good grief! Have you ever heard of Archeology? Prophecy? History? I don't even know where to begin.

For example, I assume you've heard of the Biblical character of Jesus (mentioned predominantly in all versions of the Christian Bible). Would you find it surprising to know that archaeologists and historians have found plenty of "secular" documentation of the man's life consistent with the accounts in the Bible?

So then, the Bible predicts there was a famous religious leader who traveled around to certain cities. Thus "predicting" secular records of his ministry existed. Archaeologists looked for such, and found them! Amazing! Shazam! But does this make the life of Jesus science?!? Not in my humble opinion.
