The classification system by which bats are considered mammels was invented in 1735 and the Bible was written a long time before that.

Perhaps you should read this:

Quote:There is a looooong list of animals that god considers to be abominations, if so, why did he create them in the first place?
When he created the world there was no distinction between clean and unclean animals. The world and everything in it have been changed as a result of Adam's sin.

Re bats. Surely if god is all knowing he would have foresaw this and inspired the writing of the bible accordingly. There is nothing in the bible that could not have been written by fanatical bronze age men. It makes no prediction and reveals no new information. In fact quite the contrary all of it's central claims have long been dismissed and we see religious folks furiously trying to cover up the cracks.
