Not at all, it's refreshing to have a different non-agressive atheist view in this.

I see what you're saying but I think you might be misunderstanding the reason d'etre for the Bible. It's not meant to be a brief history of time, more a guidance for living. It's not meant to be a narrative of the world. Each book in the Bible (something for the militant athiests - the bible is actually made up of 66 books) tells a story. It gives a message (or messages). So you can understand why a lot of what we know today is not included. My view is God gave us the Bible to tell us not 'everything' but instead 'what we needed to know'. Gravity for example isn't mentioned in it but why would it?
