That does not mean they were correct. Scientific information can be independantly verified. When looking the op for this thread, the information in there is true, the tower of Babal story should not be taken literally.
The information about the second law can be verified by independant scientific sources. If you try to find out from independant scientific sources, you will find that Evolution and the second law of theormodyanmics have nothing to do with each other. That is because the earth is not a closed system for one. Life processed do not violate it.

Re: The Tower of Babeli
Well, several points.
The 'great serpeant' fits more like the levathan, rather than the snake in Genesis. From the text in Revelation, and from the text in Genesis, there is no reason to assocatite the 'serpent' in Genesis with the 'Great Serpent' in REvelation.
Second of all, when it comes to the 'allegorical' matter of 'dominion' over the beasts it is more like a 'stewardship'. It is more like being a 'farmer' over fields rather than domination.
If you understand the Hebrew, just like the tower of babel story, you would realise it is just an allegory.. with Adam is 'everyman' and eve (which means 'life' by the way), is 'every woman'.
