The Bible is both a claim and an evidence the best evidence you could ask for.

The bible is evidence for nothing except itself.

It means everything for God does not ask you to have blind faith as in atheism.

Ever heard of Egypt?? They have quite a bit of much much older texts called "hieroglyphics" that makes your claim sound childish and ignorant. The ancient Chinese did quite well too, with texts much older than anything biblical.

But, since you're a "christian," I'm sure you can ignore/ dodge/ lie your way out of any contradictions in your claims.

Another meaningless answer. You're not very good at this buckwheat.

Since you have yet to prove god even exists, he can't ask for anything.

So your answer is meaningless.

As is your belief.
