How did Biblical figures know the Earth was round and that ocean currents, sub-atomic particles, a jet stream and an infinite number of stars existed if they lived thousands of years before scientists would make those discoveries?

Round with four corners, eh? Last time I checked, a circle was not a sphere, and the sun didn't actually travel around the earth.

As for the infinite number of stars, Bruno was burned to death by Christians for saying something like that.

The ancients weren't just a bunch of rubes just hangin' around the cave. They were able to observe and deduce many things we assume only modern man is capable of observing. I've heard this arugument stated this way:

"My grandfather was credited with the discovery of pus, but I don't know how anyone could have missed it"
