Richard Dawkins in a debate with John Lennox said how the Bible has made no accurate predictions, no real prophecies (I'm paraphrasing by the way). Then John Lennox said that it did make an astounding and excellent prediction (all my quoting on this post is paraphrased): A prediction that the universe had a beginning. Which agrees with modern science.
I love Dawkins response. He says how it's not exactly an amazing prediciton either the universe had a beginning or it didn't.
That's the best Christianity can do? Getting a coin flip right?
And even then..... where did the big bang come from? If you count the beginning of time as the beginning then yes there's a beginning but that's trivial because "beginning" makes so sense before time.
