In short, yes. To have even a slim chance of getting accurate information when it comes to science regarding the Bible, you pretty much have to be dealing with people who are not working from the presupposition that the Bible is either true or false. Because it seems that Christians are practically unable to free themselves of their presuppositions for even a moment, it seems that a non-christian source is required to corroborate virtually every source of "christian science" in existence.
The Bible says that Nebuchadnezzar would turn Tyre into a bare rock, never to be rebuilt, and that didn't happen. The prophecy is very specific, and it specifically failed, just like everything else in that link I provided. Fulfilled prophecies are not evidence for the Bible because there are no fulfilled Bible prophecies.
If you want to believe something for which there is no evidence, that's up to you I guess, but it's dishonest to claim that you believe it because of any kind of evidence. You don't. You believe it because of faith and nothing else, and faith is the most intellectually dishonest position it's possible to hold. If you continue in this ignorance and dishonesty, you will go to your grave having never experienced reality as it truly is. To save yourself from this fate, you must accept reality and turn from your superstition so you can begin a personal relationship with reality. I'm just here to tell the truth.
Verbatim from the mouth of Jesus (retranslated from a retranslation of a copy of a copy):
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you too will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. How can you see your brother's head up his ass when your own vision is darkened by your head being even further up your ass? How can you say to your brother, 'Get your head out of your ass,' when all the time your head is up your own ass? You hypocrite! First take your head out of your own ass, and then you will see clearly who has his head up his ass and who doesn't." Matthew 7:1-5 (also Luke 6: 41-42)
