Uh, exactly. We can confirm the tree to exist, we can't confirm whether you did fly to the moon or not. You can't reject the truthful aspects of something by the parts you don't believe in/agree with/think are crazy. That's why trying to 'scientifically disprove' the bible, as the original poster put it, would never work.
Uh, since many historical events described in the bible have already been confirmed through archaeological discoveries, I don't think the bible can ever be proven to be -complete- nonsense.
I also don't see how running out of oil is going to bring us any closer to an utopia. Unless, by 'utopia', you mean 'dark age'.
