That's the thing. The damnbible talks about animal being made "after their kind" etc, but it also says that bats are birds and the Moon is a light. Once we start to strip out everything we know to be wrong, how do we know where to stop?
The Bible is not meant to be a scientific description of modern biological categories. Instead, it is often written from the perspective of what we see. In other words, it makes generic categorizations. In this case, the bat is categorized as a bird because like birds, it flies and is similar in size to most birds. If we did not know that it was a mammal, it would be natural to call it a bird. To the Hebrew of ancient times, calling it a bird was perfectly logical.
