Top 7 Times Science Has Proven the Bible

I'm a religious person and have an advanced degree in theology, so people assume I'm completely ignorant of science. I believe the Bible is really, actually true, so I must ride in a horse and buggy, right?
I encounter this mindset all the time, especially in discussions with atheists. Unfortunately for the atheists, this misconception allows me to land punches they never see coming ... in the most charitable sense, of course.
You see, I have been trained in the hard sciences, as well as theology. I hold a degree in chemical engineering. I have also been a history teacher, and the history of science is a favorite subject of mine.
It's amazing how little people know about the history of science, and how little people know about the Church's major contributions to science through the centuries. It's also amazing how people forget the blunders that science has committed in an attempt to disprove the Bible.
Here are the most significant examples of science actually, maybe begrudgingly, proving the events of the Bible, VIDEO version:

NOTE: This list will eventually become a series of more in-depth articles, some of which I have already written. If you want to explore these topics in greater depth - including the explanations of the science involved - you will find the links to the individual articles below.

1. The Big Bang and the Priest Who Discovered it, Father Georges Lemaître
What is unique about the Bible's description of Creation? Apart from all the other world religions and mythologies, the Bible describes the Universe being created from nothing, or ex nihilo.
Up to the 20th century, scientists believed in the Steady-State Model of the Universe. The Steady-State Model posited a universe in which the stars occupied fixed points in space. The discovery of Hubble flow, red shift, blue shift, and the Doppler Effect changed all this. Science realized the Universe was expanding.
Physicist and priest, Father Georges Lemaître, then posited the theory that, not only is the Universe expanding, but that such expansion in reverse traces back to a single point. The single point was the site of the Big Bang.
