Die-hard YECs claim that the Bible is infallible. Indeed, much of their arguments against Evolution seem to rest on this very position.
I have discussed evolution and creationism on Norwegian websites for quite some time, but I have never had the scientific errors in the Bible explained and I hope some christian fundamentalist on this forum can explain the following:
1. The Bible clearly states that insects have four legs (believe me, they have six, and spiders have eight!):
"Yet these may ye eat of every flying creeping thing that goeth upon all four, which have legs above their feet, to leap withal upon the earth. Even these of them ye may eat; the locust after his kind, and the bald locust after his kind, and the beetle after his kind, and the grasshopper after his kind. " (Lev. 11.21-22)
2. The hare is a ruminant!:
"And the hare, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you." (Lev. 11.6.)
There are many, many more examples of how scientifically wrong the Bible is, but being an biologist, these are my favourites. I just hope some of you fundamentalists can try to explain this away.
