I have independent extra-biblical references at my disposal.
Ok, I'm in. I have to see this.

The Bible is not a textbook at all. However, it is a compilation of works, many of which are historical in nature.
Against a historical backdrop, yes. Places weren't made up. Some history can be genuinely found in the Bible. But, we are talking about the validity of the Bible as being a reliable account of evidence to prove God's existence, and anything having to do with the supernatural.

Yet, Islam is a growing progressive faith, just like Christianity.
Do you see the problem in believing in hearsay? Islam is built on hearsay too. IT'S ALL HEARSAY, my brutha. :p
We are not talking about Islam. To bring it up would be a red herring.
Islam refutes that Jesus was the Son of God, and that he was even crucifed. Islam refutes the very topic you wish to debate...butttt...I digress, as we will just go off topic then.
I have to get some things done, now, but begin your topic, and I'll do my best to debate you. :p
