Let's test the superfly! - the Ultimate Bible Quiz

All the answers given in this video come from the pages of Conservapedia, The Trustworthy Encyclopedia. The link is here;
http://www.conservapedia.com/Biblical_scientific_foreknowledge

The questions are as follows (the correct answer is marked with ***):

Question 1.

"As birds flying, so will the LORD
of hosts defend Jerusalem; defending
also he will deliver it; and passing
over he will preserve it."
Isaiah 31.5

What scientific foreknowledge did this passage contain?

Was it;
a) the aeroplane ***
b) missile early warning satellite systems
c) global navigation systems
d) the wave particle duality of matter

Question 2.
"The earth came to exist in an
utterly formless and empty state."
Genesis 1:2.

According to conservapedia, what knowledge did this foretell?

a) Plate tectonics
b) Heisenberg uncertainty principle ***
c) the hydroplate theory
d) the wave particle duality of matter?

Conservapedia goes on to explain:
"Both the Old and New Testaments refer to a fundamental uncertainty that requires observation to resolve, akin to the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle discovered in the 1920s.

Question 3
The only miracle described in all 4 gospels is the multiplication of loaves and fishes. This is foreknowledge of what?

a) the importance of a balanced diet
b) an obscure mathematical principle ****
c) all matter is made of the same elemental particles
d) wave particle duality of matter

Conservapedia states:
"But the 20th century discovery of the so-called Banach-Tarski Paradox proved a mathematical basis for creating identical copies of an object."

Question 4

"He walked on the surface of
the lake and came to the boat,
nearly passing it. But when they
saw him walking on water, they
thought it must have been a ghost,
and cried out."
Mark 6:48-49

a) the jet ski
b) the weight of objects in fluids of different density
c) mobile phones
d) the wave particle duality of matter

Conservapedia states;
"The wave-particle duality was described nearly 2000 years earlier in the Gospel account of Jesus walking on water. A close reading of the passage reveals the wave-like (or light-like) characteristic of the walking on water."

Question 5

"When the host of the wedding
feast tasted the water, it had
been made into wine."
John 2.9

Conservapedia states that this is scientific foreknowledge of?
a) the cell theory
b) the germ theory
c) the theory of classic relativity
d) the collapse of the wave function upon observation ***

It states:
"This passage implies that the drink was not wine until it had been tasted, or observed. Possibly, the drink was a superposition of the state of wine and the state of water until it was observed as wine."

Question 6
"And the second angel sounded,
and as it were a great mountain burning
with fire was cast into the sea:
and the third part of the sea became blood;
And the third part of the creatures which were
in the sea, and had life, died; and the third part
of the ships were destroyed."
Revelation 8:8-9

Which of these answers does conservapedia consider correct?

a) discovery of meteoroids ***
b) nuclear bombs
c) hot under water sea vents
d) the internal combustion engine

Question 7
"A fire devoureth before them; and behind them a flame burneth: the land is as the garden of Eden before them, and behind them a desolate wilderness; yea, and nothing shall escape them. The appearance of them is as the appearance of horses; and as horsemen, so shall they run."
Joel 2:3-4

Answers:
a) the ford Model t ***
b) the Sherman tank
c) the stealth bomber
d) The nuclear submarine

Question 8
Curse not the king, no not in thy thought; and curse not the rich in thy bedchamber: for a bird of the air shall carry the voice, and that which hath wings shall tell the matter."
Ecclesiastes 10:20

Answers:
a) the goblin teas maid
b) the transitor radio ***
c) the helicopter
d) Maxwell's equations

Question 9

A meagre 4/9. I then rolled a dice (1=A, 2=B etc, 5+6=roll again) and got 5/9. What do you know? My dice knows more about the bible than I do.

RB

PS: having read through the other comments, I'm kinda worried that I scored as high as I did. And my dice is now in the post to the other side of the atlantic, where it doubtless longs to be...

[Dokazuj91]

And the birth of Jesus is scientific fore knowledge of breaking condoms.

[ArcasDevlin]

Clearly every single one is the wave particular thing-y - even the few for which that's not given as an option.

[atheistram]

@234TIPPMANNA5 Uh... this is a parody video. 

[1Bilco1]

I got the first one right. That was all. I should have guessed. Seemed to work for them :p

[mygodlesslife]

3/9, but considering how batshit insane any of the answers were, I was happy to get that high a result.

[thesparitan]

@Templarforever You have mental issues then need to be dealt with.

[thesparitan]

@MARI0LAND Thats a F but its better then what I got which is 25% right.

[thesparitan]

I got 3 out of 9 right, after the first 4 everything I got was wrong.  That was very difficult and I am usually very good at tests. Yep the bible was very clear in its predictions of scientific discoveries. NOT!!!!!!

[KittenKitoko]

1. That...BIRDS CAN FLY :D

2. THE EARTH IS A BALL :D

3. PEOPLE ARE STARVING!

4. People are part fish

5. Wedding hosts are followed by lots of drunks

9. Asking who makes the tea gets you in time out

[234TIPPMANNA5]

Genesis 1:1 (The Heavens and the Earth are created on the same day) is shown to be incorrect by which scientific finding:

A) Radiometric dating

B) Measuring Thermal Gradients

C) Helioseismic verification

D) Observing Cosmic Red-shift

E) Use of the Lambda-CDM concordance model

F) All of the above

ANSWER: (F)

I would caution you against quoting scripture as predicting scientific findings when the first passage in the bible is the first of many disproven by the same meticulous scientific work.
