Could you expand? What do you have to say about all the physical evidence of the Bible? For example, the Dead Sea Scrolls? Approximately 950 different manuscripts were found from 1947 to 1956 in 11 caves near Khirbet Qumran. These documents were written from 408 BCE to 318 CE.
Quote:In addition, there are natural phenomena that cannot be explained outside of the contents of the Bible.Such as?
Quote:Other religions, science, and historical evidence proves an event like the flood occured. While other religions (including native, etc.) might describe the Great Flood in a different way, they do point to it and conclude that it did occur. Another example...Mount Sinai in Egypt (also mentioned in the Old Testament of the Bible). How can you explain the burnt top of the mountain?There is no evidence of the deluge, all evidence against the deluge, and..frankly, simply cannot be a deluge. I'll walk you through it if you're interested. Sure, lots of people tell flood stories, but not the same flood story, and no amount of telling flood stories gives any credence to the flood story you believe in. You're probably (at least)vaguely aware of why this doesn't work? I notice you don't grant similar credence to all of the other stories so many other religions tell..as a "biblical christian".....for example? Sure, plenty of people tell plenty of stories...but you don't believe in them on account of that..do you?
