The bible doesn't get edited, that is the very reason it is still there. Like I told Archon that the writers didn't have the same knowledge about the situation that we now have, and if the story was taken literally then a man saw creation unfold before people were created on the 6th day. You can tell using common sense and reading comprehension what should be read literally. Every story has a message, very rarely is the story just supplying factual information about a time period or event. It is meant for the lessons of the stories, and that is widely understood by religious people. Those lessons are the things that you should take literally, not whether Goliath died from a pebble or a sword. Doing the contrary would be like someone believing everything they see on TV, which hopefully no one does
It is like saying science is false because theories over the years have disproved each other. That would be an absurd claim to make, so is saying the bible is not true because not every little thing matches history and science books.
