===Bat as a bird===
===Bat as a bird===
A favorite [[evolutionist]] canard is that [[Leviticus 10-18 (Translated)#Chapter 11|Leviticus 11:13-19]] labels the [[bat]], a [[mammal]], as a [[bird]]. The [[KJV]] translation of "fowl" is simply incorrect, as the Hebrew term '' 'owph'' did not entail the "clade" of birds, but was a non-scientific category simply referring to ''any'' winged creature. A popular Jewish translation, used to explain the laws of keeping kosher, translates the term as "winged flying things."

===Four corners of the Earth===
Flat erthers cite Isaiah 11:12 and Revelation 7:1 to argue that the Bible teaches a flat Earth because they mention the "four corners of the earth." However, "four corners of the earth" is a figure of speech for the four cardinal directions (north, south, east, and west), not the Earth having four literal corners.
