Historical fact - our knowledge made no progress when we believed whatever
nonsense was in the Bible. Once the Renaissance came along, knowledge
progressed rapidly because people stopped assuming that whatever church
leaders and theologians and the Bible said was correct.
So your "positive prediction" can actually be back-tested and shown to
fail
spectacularly.
