You have described scientific evidence and tried to apply it to a field that has nothing to do with science: history and historical documents. What event in history could ever stand up to your criteria of: 'Evidence is demonstrable, repeatable, measurable, and has predictive qualities'? No that is not what evidence is.
In addition, you said in two different sentences that the 'bible is not evidence' and then 'is not good evidence'. Which is it?
People easily trust historical documents, because they have 0 impact on their life.
Bible demands people to sell their live to the church.
Don't forget that it also makes claims that would alter our view of reality if true.
I don't believe you. Get over it.
