That is a belief not a fact. If were a fact then explain why an all powerful deity would create a literal biblical world then allow future science to discover overwhelming evidence for just the opposite.
Proverbs 25:2 It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honour of kings is to search out a matter.
God created this universe with what I like to call "Easter eggs" embedded into it.
An "Easter egg" if you may recall, is a small program embedded into a video game that players like to share with each other in school.
An example that I can barely remember is Atari Golf.
Type in "Golf" backward in the set-up field, and it played a round of Frogger.
Something like that.
Anyway, God embedded "Easter eggs" into His creation -- (my favorite example is oil) -- to be found later on by men and women that He empowered with special knowledge.
"Gifted people" -- so to speak.
But over time, people started using their God-given talents against Him, rather than to glorify His creation.
They started playing games of connect-the-dots with His creation, Arab-phoning specific words in the Bible to their standards, and moving the decimal place as necessary to force-fit their ideas into a comprehensive and coherent story of history.
They are constantly updating their theories to conform to new discoveries and, in the meantime, produce junk science every month and propagate it to the public via such rags as Scientific American and Popular Science, which makes them look like they're doing actual work.
