You may think that it serves as a testimony to your faith, but in my opinion, it only serves to show the lack thereof.
you're right in the fact that the bible is not a scientific book. it doesn't really say anything about science but everything it's said about the physical world has been accurate. that's my point.
Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war's desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust."
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
