Total BS there Hammy. You are saying that if you (through Rob's magic truth viewing porthole to history) personally witnessed the creation of the universe, God bringing the Earth into existence, and God himself walking and conversing with man in the garden of Eden; God laying out his instructions for man, Adam naming the animals, the list goes on; you would hold to the same positions you do today because of natural explanations?

Instead of viewing through a wormhole, how about being able to teleport to any place or time, and throw in a Star Trek universal translator while you're at it. That way one could actually interact with what's going on (with obvious rules as to not change anything) and talk to people to find out about this Jesus fella. Or if the possibility of interacting too much is uncomfortable, then perhaps the old TV/movie trick of being present but nobody can see or hear you would work. You could still totally observe and feel like you are actually there, but not interfere with what's going on.
Of course I think most Christians would be disappointed when they try to find Bethlehem year 1 to witness Jesus' birth, and likely unable to find him nailed to the cross 32 years later.

Disappointed would be an understatement. Conversely, how would you feel if you found them to be as the Bible state? Could be an uh oh moment.
