True, bad scholars do that.  So do bad scientists.  Incompetence and mendacity isn't limited to theists.

The difference is that biblical scholars are always wrong and scientists are sometimes right.  Noah's Ark never existed.  But F=MA will always be right.

Incompetency and inaccuracy is not the same, though.  Biblical scholars are, by definition, not scientific.  Scientists can be inaccurate, but not by failure of the method.

Sorry, F=MA is wrong - Einstein

Equations in science are tools, not truths.  If the equation fits are particular problem, use it.  But don' mistake it for truth.  Noah's Ark exists as a meme.  Same as politics.  Are you saying that politics doesn't exist?

What are you doing?

Tell that car coming at you that F doesn't = MA.

Too many religious people think Noah's Ark is real.

Your last statement is a Trump-tactic and I will ignore it.

Well the bar to get to grovel at the feet of 'the creator' was set just a tad too high for my taste. It reads like a laundry list of reasons for rejection on a dating site.
Not rich enough, check,
Not the perfect family guy, check
Hair too long, check
Too old, check
Don't have my own car or apartment, check
No job, check
Former heroin addict, check
Won't be jealous every time woman goes outside alone, check

Dammit, no wonder I am stuck living in a beautiful house on a lake and have no job or reason to find one! 
All hail my new signature!

Admit it. You're secretly green with envy.

Nice to meet you Ivanka.  Does daddy love you?

Well, I usually know better than to wear high heels to the Houston hurricane flood ;-)

Hey, what's wrong with high heels to get you a few inches above the flood water?  I've read it is that last inch of water that gets you (or your car).

That only works if G-d is some superior alien creature.
How could the Creator God be a "superior alien creature" and still be the creator God? I suppose it could be prior to and outside of our universe, but we have no evidence that such could be the case, only pure speculation.

My mom, Ivana isn't as smart as I was (she wore heels, hence the reference).  Young people are smarter than old people, just ask St Truth ;-)

You were the one, and others before you, who keep channeling Von Daniken.  Were you descended from one of the pets left on Earth accidentally by the Annunaki?

And your egomania ... needs diagnosis.  Hope you get help.  I now realize I am not the person for that job.
Oh? What was your first clue?

What the holy fuck are you talking about? Did you get up in a bad mood, or have you simply gone bonkers?
