Science in the Bible

In the class we are taking on Monday nights at the church building (Fishers of Men - the website is on my sidebar) one of the things that has interested me the most that I had not thought of before are all the scientific facts that are in the Bible and were written way before science discovered them. I thought you might find it interesting too. Here are some examples.
