Even if science were shown to be all false tomorrow, that would do little to support the veracity of the Bible. Religion is simply injecting unnecessary nonsense into the brains of its followers. These barbaric ways of thinking should have died off hundreds of years ago.
God is supposed to be a perfect being, yet he requires worship. He is omniscient and yet he has free will. These two logical contradictions are enough to demonstrate that God is false, or else he cannot have all these characteristics, and in that case he would not be the biblical god. He is also supposed to be benevolent and yet ten people have starved to death during the time that you have been reading this. The only way Christians justify all these things is that God is mysterious and is beyond our capability to fathom. In other words, special pleading.
The most compelling argument for atheism, is that it is time to abandon our primitive and unsophisticated belief systems.
