Jim,
The three examples you cite are nowhere definitively
stated in any biblical text. They are assertions by
those conducting exegesis on the biblical texts, based
on their particular sets of assumptions.
They are not and have never been Christian dogma (in
the technical, not common, sense of the word). Nor
have they ever been theologically of any importance of
which I am aware. Thus, they have no impact on
whether Christianity is true or false in light of
science.
Thus, you've failed to state anything about
christianity that science has called into question.
