Science and History vs Faith

Sometimes when I look at science and history, it seems to
over power and prove the Christian bible wrong. I mean in
the Book of Genesis, you start off with the creation of
Earth, the Garden of Eden, and man and animals. Yet
prehistory and science tells us about dinosaurs and cave
men. And the Christian Bible and every other "Bible" are
books of faith, but if the Christian bible tells us the
words of God, how come God ommitted any reference to the
dinosaurs? Or did the men who wrote the bible accidently
forget to include them?

Another things that's the word of science and history and
the Christian Bible is Jericho. We all know that in the
Christian Bible, the walls of Jericho fell and with the
help of God, Joshua and the other Isralites conquered the
city. But scientific evidence say that the date the walls
of Jericho fell at an earlier date than that of which the
bible tells us. And this screws up the whole date of the
Exodus and everything after.

And King David, the flawed heroes of the times. What does
science and history say about him? Science and history
says, we know more about King Arthur than about King David.
There is no historical evidence that King David even
exsisted. King Solomon is like that too. The only thing
proving Solomon even exsisted is the Second Temple ruins,
the West Wall I think. And even that is sketchy.

But like I said the Christian Bible and any other "Bible"
is and always will be a book of faith. And even if science
and history says otherwise, it's a book of faith. Let
nothing shake up your faith, sometimes faith is the only
thing you have to turn too and that's why people are
willing to kill and die for it. And really, some people who
claim to have faith don't have faith. Just ask someone who
thinks the theory of evolution shouldn't be taught in
schools. Then ask them don't you think if someone has true
faith they won't be so easily swayed towards believing more
in science than in religion.
