the Bible...did NOT say...

Today, during my 1st period class, we had presentations again...nd this one person did it on Galileo Galilee. We all know now, that the earth is "heliocentric" (things revolve around the sun)...but back then, ppl such as the catholics believed it was "geocentric" (things revolve around the earth)...nd even b4 that...ppl thought the earth was flat. But during the presentation...iunno, the guy kept sayin "the Bible said that the world was geocentric", nd "the Bible says that the earth was flat"...."so Galileo proved the Bible wrong."...which kinda bothered me.
Soo basically, i got tht...no one should believe in the Bible. I might've been a lil sensitive, but He also said tht.. "the ppl who believed in the Bible, killed Galileo..." Mann, tht kinda got me fired upp...cuse it wasn't the first time. I no fr a fact...tht he was strongly against the Bible, tht he always wanted to disprove it, but he didn't hve to do it like tht. I've known him for a while...so yea, he/she does these kinda things a lot. I have nothing against him or anything...but jus ticks me off everytime he tries things like tht. So I had to clarify thingss...
The scientist did NOT disprove the Bible.... He disproved the ppl in the churches! (who were thought to have followed the Bible) lol. Cuse the Bible never everr said anything like that...when God created the earth, He just created it. I guess God didn't find it that important to mention all the detail nd wutnot of his intelligent design. He just said the word...nd it was created. (I didn't exactly say it like that, but tht's wut i was trying to get across...)

I wus a bit offended...although i held myself. Without thinking, he just made that assumption. Cuse he kinda put his own twist of what the Bible says. God wrote the Bible, can't add stuff to it...Iunno, i got a lil worked up about it.

The guy jus assumed that wut the ppl believed in back then...was what came from the Bible. So he decided to replace the "ppl of the churches, back then" with "the Bible" instead. Out of all other words...He had to use "the Bible"...which i thought wasn't too appropriate or accurate...in many aspects...both technically & religiously.

(srry, fr hatin, or if i over-reacted...this is how i felt...at tht moment)

It's not hating. It's just correcting people to convey the actual truth. I have to concur that I find it irritating when people ignorantly convey assumptions as fact without research.
Some people have hardened hearts towards Christianity and the Bible. Even if we had intellectually proved that the Bible is reasonable to them, they wouldn't believe it because they have hardened hearts.
