Their claim didn't turn out to be wrong (as posed in your post). Do you see why?

You were comparing the theories on the frontier of science to the theories posed in the bible, and implied that they were equally plausible/likely/believable. Equating in value the theories of ignorant peasants from 2000-3000 years ago and the theories of today's most brilliant minds is insulting.

The bible has been proven false in pretty much every one of its claims (which are subject to disproof). Science isn't always right, but in the past few hundred years, science is doing pretty darn well.
