The Bible and Astronomy

The bible was written at a time when people believed that the sun moved around a flat earth, and that the earth was located at the center of the universe.
The science of astronomy discovered that earth is round, and it is just one mote of dust, an insignificant particle floating aimlessly in space. The earth is just one of the 400 million planets and stars that comprise the Milky Way galaxy of which is just one of the hundreds of billions of galaxies existing in space and in time called the Cosmos.
It is time to throw your holy bible out the window. It was written by inspired authors who were neither useful nor truthful. Only fearful and dreadful and faithful. Poch Suzara

No, please! Keep that bible. You never know when you'll need a paper weight or firewood or when you'll run out of toilet paper. And when you suddenly feel artistic and take up paper mache, its many leaves will surely be a blessing.

Hey, this crap has a million and one uses!
