When viewed from a certain perspective, yes it is. As I said, from where I am sitting, the sun moves across the sky. In so saying I am not lying. Just stating the simple truth as things appear. When I wake up in the morning and see a beautiful sunrise, I am not inclined to engage the scientifically correct version of my observation, and most people would understand what I was talking about. In case the notion has escaped you, the biblical texts were written for an audience that resides on planet Earth, for whom the sun will, unless one is stationed in outer space, always rise and set.

Oh, not so, Mr./Ms. Chugabrew. The heliocentric solar system was discovered long, long before humans were in space. It's a pretty easy thing to infer.
The O.T. biblical texts were written for a bunch of nomadic bronze-age shepherds or goatherds. You are correct that the explanations are unscientific. Science was far in the future. That is why the Bible is useless as a guide to the scientific explanations of natural phenomena.
Any attempt to subvert science by introducing 3000 year old texts transcribed from stories told around the campfire is simply dumb-headed. The Bible is not science. The Bible is a religious text...a mixture of historical fact and fable. It's useful as a religious text, obviously, since the followers of it are the largest group on the planet. It is still not a science text. The Genesis chapters on cosmology are useless, scientifically.
You're welcome to believe them. You're not welcome to try to foist those fables off on children.
Thank you for your attention.
