As I said before, I didn't read much of these sites at all & I don't know where this "book of facts" part came from but be careful Bunny, you are skating on thin ice. The Bible, from a Christian view, is without error & is the infallible Word of God. The error comes from man's interpretation.

I agree - and I think a literal interpretation is one of the incorrect ones.

Do you mean all literal interpretation is incorrect? Or just some?

I mean only some. I expect some parts of the bible were intended to be interpreted literally.
In general, if I want to learn a fact about the world, what's written in an old book is not a good way to learn it. Scientific investigation and/or corroboration from several sources is a better way to determine the age of the earth, whether the Red Sea parted, etcetera, etcetera.
