Do you realize that "scientific theory" is nothing more than a group of hypotheses (educated guesses) that can be disputed? In other words, theory is nothing but speculations aka not fact. So tell me, how is speculation by humans more valid than what's written in the Judeo-Christian Bible?
What is written in the Bible is merely the pronouncements of primitive people, and thus not even educated guesses. Obviously, human effort today, with much better tools and a much better knowledge base to work with, is superior to what was possible for nomads thousands of years ago. There is no good reason to believe the Bible consists of anything other than human effort; those who do believe that believe it in response to a threat of Hell or a promise of Heaven or both, hence have been blackmailed or bribed into accepting it, and hence are not evaluating it rationally.

You're right. The Bible writings are not mere educated guesses. They are Divine pronouncements. I'm still waiting for you to explain away the almost 2,000 accurately fulfilled Bible prophesies.
