Apparently, the book of Job in the bible has the science correct if you ask certain sites like the one below:

This site gives a scientific rendering of the bible. In this particular link, it looks at Job 26:7:

“Job 26:7

He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and hangeth the earth upon nothing.”

Then, there are a further two citations below this one as follows:

Job 26:7

26:7 empty place. The “empty place” (Hebrew tohu) probably refers to the just-created earth, which was initially “without form” (Genesis 1:2: same word, tohu). As the earth received its spherical form in response to the gravitational force systems activated when the Spirit “moved” in the presence of the primeval waters, then the north direction was defined when the earth began rotating about its axis. The north was surely “stretched out,” without limit, far into the infinite heavens.

I have lately been constructing arguments against God and the supernatural. I have proven that stuff doesn't exist with science equations. I aspire to be great.
