What are some parallels between science and the Bible?

MortalGuardian: What are some parallels between science and the Bible?
In other words, what are some things that both science and the Holy Bible agree upon? You know, a lot of people like to talk about contradictions in the Bible, or how the Bible is wrong, because science proves otherwise. Don’t be dismissive and say that there is nothing at all that science and the Bible square away on. That simply isn’t true.

What are some things that science and the Bible confirm one another on?

Just because the bible might say something which we know is true through science, doesn’t mean it’s supernatural claims are true.

Anyone can tell certain things about the world, it doesn’t mean their other claims are valid at all.

He also told Daniel: “In those days (speaking of the end times) people will travel to and fro and knowledge will be greatly increased.”
