Extra-biblical sources are incomplete therefore not wholly reliable. You need to take the Bible at face value and wait for science and the secular man to catch up to what the Bible has known and clearly stated for millennia. When science criticizes the Bible, science needs to be asked a question. Do you know all there is to know? If not, the burden of proof is on the criticizer. The Scripture tells me it is reliable...and it has proven its reliability over and over.
2 Timothy 3:16-17
All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be competent equipped for every good work.
Of course this above statement will make absolutely no sense to those that cannot biblically and spiritually discern things. It will appear as foolishness to the non-biblical and theologically illiterate.
1 Corinthians 1:18
For the word of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
Has science proved itself reliable over and over across the entire spectrum that it addresses? Hardly. Phrenology, Social Darwinism and Scientific Racism to name just a few have been "EPIC FAIL" material. All these things help lead to the Nazi purge in Germany of the Jews and is still used to this day under the guise of ethnic cleansing.
Bottom line? I can no longer put my "faith" in a creation(s) of man because they've "blown it" too many times. A majority of biological or biologically based science is based on a theory that is contradictory to the Bible (evolution) that doesn't have a shred of scientific proof to validate macro evolution. No evidence that a living life form has ever "evolved" outside of its type/species. No transitional fossils. Nothing scientific, nothing repeatably observable.
Genesis 1:24-25 And God said, "Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: livestock, creatures that move along the ground, and wild animals, each according to its kind." And it was so. God made the wild animals according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good."
"Kind": family, species.
When alleged transition fossils are produced it is bone fragments that or potions of a skull that is less than 10% of the original bone mass (i.e. partial skeletons). Skulls that could clearly be defined as primate are redefined as proto-human to fit an evolutionary agenda when it is quite possible they could be minute variations on the micro-evolutionary level within the primate species.
If the Bible has been wrong as many times as science has people would've lost faith in it a long time ago. It would've been a laughingstock. I believe this is why the Bible is attacked so viciously so often. I have a college level Biology book that dedicates 1300 pages to evolutionary biology and 1/2 a page to creationism. They only reason creationism was included in the book was to ridicule it BUT no attempt to disprove what it claims. Why? I believe it is either because those in the scientific community have never read and understood it or they know what I already do. That it is correct. If its correct then not only are they wrong, they have to admit they are sinners deserving of punishment. This will never happen because it will take science out of the drivers seat and man looses control. There has never really been a successful refutation of what the Bible states. Where it speaks to science (even though it is not a science book) it has never been wrong.
