    And God said, “Let there be a vault between the waters to separate water from water.” So God made the vault and separated the water under the vault from the water above it. And it was so. God called the vault “sky.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the second day.
    And God said, “Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place, and let dry ground appear.” And it was so. God called the dry ground “land,” and the gathered waters he called “seas.” And God saw that it was good.

    Above we see that there were waters below and waters above. Underneath the waters above was the sky. According to many Christians the flood came because God allowed the waters above to come down.

    And God said, “Let there be lights in the vault of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them serve as signs to mark sacred times, and days and years, and let them be lights in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth.” And it was so. God made two great lights—the greater light to govern the day and the lesser light to govern the night. He also made the stars. God set them in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth, to govern the day and the night, and to separate light from darkness. And God saw that it was good. And there was evening, and there was morning—the fourth day.

    Above, we see that the bible is saying that God placed the sun and the moon in the vault of the sky; i.e. the earth's atmosphere. So much for the bible being "scientifically accurate."

    @schnell:

    Thanks for the diagram.

    My point is if the creation story is clearly false, why do people still take it so seriously?

    Most believers don't understand that about 6th century Babylonian cosmology. They mistakenly read modern science into Genesis, Job (older than 6th century, I know) and Isaiah, even where it doesn't make much sense. The result is an apologetic mess.

    And they wonder why people have to be made so stupid. That is why they need diseducation systems. That is why they need people to be put on psychiatric medications, why they need to add monosodium glutamate to everything, why they need people to eat aspartame, why they need 1.2 ppm fluoride in the water (even if they say it is 0.7 ppm, still too much, they are lying and it really is 1.2 ppm). That is why they need to discredit everything that goes against the official doctrines. That is why they need Internet II, where only big groups put anything online. That is why we have political correctness.

    If people used their brains instead of holding back in the name of not offending anyone, and they were to get all that poison out of the food, it is stuff like this that would debunk the whole LIE-ble. People would see the whole damnation book as a tool to enslave the whole human race, and reject it wholesale. So, they have to keep us distracted--and poisoned with fluoride in the water and aspartame and monosodium glutamate (and neotame, which is not even labelled) in your food.
