Hello truedog. Yeah, there is no doubt the literalists are wrong on this one. It is one of the pitfalls to claiming it is a book to be interpreted literally, without giving consideration to allegory. The bible has never been proven wrong on any points. Historians and archeologists have been trying to disprove things that are written in there, but so far they have been unsuccessful. Most "bible scholars" today are nothing but debunkers, like the Jesus Seminar. Their strongest attacks are on the New Testament. They try and disprove it through history and archeology, buy they also try and show examples of where the new law has conflicted with Old Testament prophecies. Do you recall the excitement when a Dead Sea scroll that was the earliest version of the book of Isaias was released to scholars for study? "Scholars" were convinced they could now puncture the myth that Isaias wrote of a pierced messiah. They were so sure it was added by the Church later as a propaganda device. Well, it turns out the book of Isaias, or Isaiah, has been unchanged throughout history. The ancient text did not differ from the translations that have been handed down. It was a major blow to them. They won't quit, though.
