Why believe the bible?

[Amarok]

Something outside the Bible? Okay. There were dozens of churches in dozens of cities across the Roman empire within 20 years of Jesus.

I don't think that it's in much dispute that there were Christians then. It's not in dispute at all that the Branch Dravidians were real, but it does not imply that David Koresh was a real prophet.

Indeed lots of people coming to accept a cult is not evidence what the cult believes is so .And Christianities was not all that remarkable.
