I think it's interesting how there are more than 40,000 different sects which interpret the Bible in very different ways and how interpretation is necessary because if read literally, it contradicts reality famously right from the beginning.
Science updates and changes with new discoveries because science is honest about what it knows and what it does not know. If science claimed to have all the answers (and killed or silenced those who disagreed), it would remain static for thousands of years, too.
Quote:Truthful accounts of real people is usually confirmed by sources other than the author - especially if the author claims it as fact and such is the case with the Bible.
Fictional accounts of fictional people are usually taken on faith by people who want to think it's not fiction.
If the Bible had any correlation to reality, faith would not be important.
