Death Threats After Supporting Evolution

What if the Bible claimed that, say, the laws of quantum physics hold. In the 1700s, the Newtonian view of the universe would have disagreed with this view. So would the Bible have been wrong then?

No, it's not flawed.
I'm guessing his dad has actually read the bible and what it says about the world versus what modern science says. Without reading it, you may have a good idea of which would be right, considering the bible's static information from thousands of years ago written by men who understood very little of our world or the universe, or modern science. Really, your question is quite pointless. It's like saying, "'I liked ___'s speech.' 'You did? Well, what if he was dead? Then you wouldn't have liked it.'"

Of course the Bible would have been right, although we would have not thought that. But the Bible doesn't say that.

The true beauty of a self-inquiring sentient universe is lost on those who elect to walk the intellectually vacuous path of comfortable paranoid fantasies.
