You lack inspiration.

Does your history book teach you about applied mathematics?
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post

No, but my history book has never been claimed to be divinely inspired by a perfect, ineffable Being.

I don't think the problem is that the Bible doesn't get science correct (I wouldn't expect to see the equivalent of F = ma in Leviticus, for example), but that the Bible gets science explicitly wrong, which is hardly what one would expect from a book claimed to be inspired by perfection.

The biblical texts were corrupted. Not so with Islam, the Koran is the Word of God. I have proof of this supported by the Science, the Mathematics and the Reason.

You have claims.

Religious people need to learn the difference between “claims” and “proof”.

You USAians can but pray to his noodliness the Puritans were so fucked in the head that they couldn't avoid extinction.
Then, you'd have something to cry aboot.
