How can atheists claim the Bible is not scientifically accurate?

How can atheists claim the Bible is not scientifically accurate when Mark 6:52 clearly extols the virtues of whole-grain breads in fighting high cholesterol?

Mark 6:52 (King James Version): For they considered not the miracle of the loaves: for their heart was hardened.

Checkmate, atheists!

    Leviticus 14:49-53 the cleansing of a house involves murdering a bird and sprinkling it's blood about.

    Leviticus 11:6 the bible tells of the hare chewing cud! which they are physically incapable of if i am not mistaken....

    Noah's ark.

    2 individuals of every species....

    Know what inbreeding is?

    Know what it does to a gene pool?

    ohh, and consider Adam and Eve

    They had 2 sons

    And from these 4 people, 3 men and 1 woman came all humans.

    ohh and god was good enough to kill Jehoram off slowly and painfully by causing his bowels to drop out, and took away all his sons but one

    but that is fine, he can do that, however

    Chronicles 21:20 "Thirty and two years old was he when he began to reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem eight years, and departed without being desired..."

    Chronicles 22:1-2

    "And the inhabitants of Jerusalem made Ahaziah his youngest son king in his stead...."

    "Forty and two years old was Ahaziah when he began to reign...."

    So, king dies at 40, his youngest son is made kind in his place, at the age of 42.....

    So the son was older than the father...

    Science!

    the bible seems to have some hereditary errors

    It's a pack of nonsense...

    @Wayne F: "The Bible is bulletproof, even despite the numerous attempts atheists have taken to assassinate it"

    It is sentimental speculation and replacement theology at its finest lacking any meaningful philosophy that was had by the Judaism that reputedly spawned it.

    AND, it's filled with lotsa ignorant mistakes:

    Bats are not birds.

    Rabbits do not chew their own cud.

    Rabbits do not have hoofs.

    Pi does not equal 3.

    The Earth is not a circle.

    The earth is not flat.

    The cure for leprosy is not rubbing birds blood all over a person.

    Snakes can't talk.

    Donkeys can't talk.

    People can't float to the sky.

    Etc

    How could you possibly devise a science course around such nonsense?

    The Bible is not only scientifically accurate, it is also written by men who are primitive

    The bible is a collection of old myths written by men who had been

    smoking a lot of weed and other things.

    Because other Bible verses are not accurate in terms of contemporary scientific consensus. And why would they be anyway? Gods and humans have a very different perspective of the universe.

    Well, they just moved their Bishop (Richard Dawkins) in your path. You can take him though and gain material. You really look good for the end game. Try to mimick the strategy Thomas Aquinas used when he quoted Genesis 1:1.

    About 10 million people knew this before any one ever wrote it in the bible. Why does that make the bible special.
