"So, your god is a book? On the one hand you have a book that claims to be the Word of God, but is demonstrably false, and on the other you have verifiable evidence and observation.

Proof positive, ladies and gentlemen, that some Christians actually worship the Bible and not God."

Please demonstrate where the Bible is false, according to your assertion.

No, I don't worship the book, but Jesus said the Scriptures cannot be broken (John 10:35).

He also said: "If ye believe not Moses' writings, how shall ye believe my words?"(John 5:47)

If we reject Moses' writings, let us at least be consistent and reject Christ's too. If we believe in Christ, let us give those Holy Writings he endorses our full assurance of faith.

Bats are birds. Rabbits chew their cud. Locusts have four legs.

All these things would be appropriate to a book written by men during the early Iron Age, but an omniscient god would've not made these simple mistakes.

And, see, you quote Scripture to support Scripture. Ironically, the term "circular reasoning" probably never crossed your mind. You simply accept the validity of the Bible as a first principle, and never subject any of it to any form of scrutiny.
