Then name us some archaeological discovery that proves any of the stories in the Bible happened or that your god is real. Or maybe name us museums that hold same. Tell us which of at least six tombs claimed to be Daniel's from the Bible is the real one.
Or is it the way you know Bible is real is the same way you handle your Jesus and evolution in the same context fiasco - you simply deny it happened until you convince yourself it happened just as you wish it.

Of course since Bible reads like instruction manual for achieving a divided, angry, and violent world. It does not appear to be a recipe for peace and unity. It is a very miserable message from a god, since it was able to convince only a minority of people.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
