I have not said that your claim about the tablets and scrolls was wrong. In fact, you're being ignorant by making claims but refusing to provide reasons for your claims
Hypothetically, what evidence, theoretically obtainable using purely - for the lack of better word - nonsupernatural means, would convince you to take seriously the possibility that the fundamental basis of the bible, which is not the existence of some city named ur, but a particular sequence of events starting with a particular god who commands your worship by creating the world in a particular way and subsequently influenced it in a certain manner, could in fact be entirely false?
If your answer is there is none, then you and the rest of us do not share sufficient commonality in our mental frameworks to talk about this subject. If there are, then we can examine whether that standard of evidence you require has or can be met.
