*yawn* Is it over yet?
I can, in five minutes, corroborate more facts in any of the Harry Potter stories than you could in your Bible. Because quoting the Bible does NOT count as proof that it's true.
And in case I'm unclear here, I am talking about the Biblical conversations. I couldn't care less about the rest...it's the dialogue that's important. And you can't prove a single word of those really important conversations actually happened.edit on 21-8-2012 by AfterInfinity because: (no reason given)
Alot of it has been proven, just about as much as anything else you wanna believe. Saying the bibles not true is like saying the world is flat, I know its round, but im not gonna prove it...
I present to you, the fall of critical thinking!!!!
What exactly has been proven? Links?? Sources?? Pics or it didn't happen.

Good afternoon Randyvs... I too believe the Bible is a history book... albeit from a Jewish and Christian perspective, it is history never the less.
The lineage of kings, pharoahs, and rulers is verifiable. The timeline of invasions, rise and fall of kingdoms is verifiable, the movements and migrations of people have been proven by both science and archeology.
The social sciences and archeology of cultures and peoples and everyday life have validated the descriptions given in the Bible... eating customs, political rivalries and practices, money and economic trade, even bigotry towards Nazarenes and Gentiles and Galileans.
More and more articles are being published on findings from Solomon's Temple and Temple Mount.
Anyway... I have books written on this very subject. To write more would be redundant here.

Actually, it's nothing like that. I can pull up a picture, time stamp and all, showing the Earth is round.
Try again. On second thought, don't...I can't take much more idiocy today.edit on 21-8-2012 by AfterInfinity because: (no reason given)

I most certainly can't help the way you choose to look at the truth.
How is it that truth, facts, and common sense are all qualities held at the highest standard in schools, universities, jobs, hospitals, restaurants, shopping centers, and in courts of law, but not in church? Anything goes.
That's the problem I have with Church.

To have a quality is not to be that quality. But if you want to call yourself an idiot, then feel free to do so. Far be it from me to argue with it.
