The Bible is accurate only if you set low standards for accuracy.  The authors of the Bible used the best guesses available to them at the time.  If you pick and choose from Hindu religious texts you can also get some amazing scientific insights.  You also get a lot of nonsense from the Bible and the Rig Vedas. 


I'll take evolution instead of mythology.  The sea level was lower at some times in the past due to the various Ice Ages, so land bridges existed. The whole story may not be known or ever knowable, but I prefer it to any of the religious tales we are told.  Genetic evidence may someday tell us how far continental people are seperated from Australiaan aborigines.  Until then, I can wait.
