So, it seems that Trump Girl's point with this thread is that we should all be fine with it if it turns out that bible is proven to be in contradiction to the scientific facts of reality.
Notice the implied preference for science over the scripture.
It's fine to discard anything the bible says that is in conflict with science because "it isn't a science book" but there's no mention at all of even questioning science on the basis of scriptural truth. The compromise is always in the direction away from the scripture and toward whatever science says.
The problem of course is that science is constantly being proven false. Even scientists will proudly tell you that the process of science is all about attempting to prove the current theory false and that would be a great way for science to proceed if they ever permitted anything to falsify their favorite theories, which they never do. In other words, the science that TG tacitly prefers over the word of God isn't actually science. It's just another worldview that is believe in (i.e. by faith) by people who hate God.
At bottom, the error TG is making is to imply that there is more than one kind of truth. There isn't. There are different topics to be sure but truth is truth and all truths are compatible with each other. There simply is no such thing as two truths that contradict each other. Real science, the rigorous and systematic application of logic to the world around us, yields truth claims as does theology (the logos of the theos - the logic of God). The quality of the truth claims from each result from one's ability to understand the issues being studied. One can make an error at any point in the process and if one truth claim contradicts the other then at least one of them is false. This is the nature of reality. To deny it is to live one's life with their head buried in sand.
