It means to stop short of using what we learn to put God (or God's word) to the test.
We are charged and given the capability to test God, Gods word and Gods behavior and morality.
That is the great Raising and gift found in the blessing mankind acquired when they ate from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil.

Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

on disregarding
Remember that Biblical Christians have a foundation of disregarding all reality that conflicts with their beliefs including the contents of the Bible itself.

How funny is it?
BLT, Biblcal lettuce and tomato.
"So let me guess, the borderline between the two is any knowledge that challenges your personal understanding of the biblical narrative?"
The funny thing is that is exactly the position taken. Look up baraminology for a good laugh. It starts with basic Kinds as specified in the Bible stories, so man is a kind and cattle is a kind and antelope is a kind and raven is a kind and dove is a kind and cloven hoofed is a kind and chews cud is a kind and ...
It's absurd.

Re: summary
Rage?
How could anything you have to say be worthy of rage from anyone, atheist or theist?
Pity I could understand, maybe even contempt but you way overvalue yourself to think you could inspire rage.
