I hope I live another 1500 years so I can witness the Harry Potter Crusades.
The problem with the Bible is that too many people want to take it literally and as an acurate document of historic events. If people didn't run around claiming everything in it to be true, other people wouldn't run around trying to disprove it.

I was born into a not-so-religious Baptist family and claim to be a Christian, but not a very devout one.
I have lived my entire life around other Christians such as myself - I have never known anyone who thinks the Bible is literally correct in every detail. Everyone I know think it is an allegorical document, relating history in the sense that a timeline is involved.
It seems silly to me that so many people on here seem to get their validation from 'disproving' details in the Bible. Pretty sad commentary on their lives.
I am amazed at the overall historical accuracy of the Bible. One can 'see' a pretty good description of the 'big bang' and the evolution of the specie in the first chapter of Genesis - if one wants to.
