Evidence of the Bible's Validity

[The Valkyrie]

I have something I wish to discuss with an atheist or atheists. If any of them would take the time to hear me on this thread I would be very grateful. I have some information that I consider hardcore evidence, not proof though, of the validity of the Bible. I'm not trying to evangelize anyone here, I just would like to share some facts that I have accumulated from several sources.

I ask that you remain open minded and logical, and that you do not stray off topic. Also, don't assume that you have heard all this before, because odds are good that you haven't. People don't usually defend their views religion in the way I am about to. I'm not going to ask you to take my word for any of this. I will provide verification of my facts. Here goes:

POINT 1#: The Bible contains various prophecies. If a sufficient number of these prophecies is true, than it is very likely that these prophecies are what they claim to be. Some kind of supernatural or divine revelation. Either that or they are a highly unlikely and EXTREMELY lucky guess. Can we agree on this first point?

Nope. Vague prophecies can be interpreted into any way the reader wants them to. It's similar to the "prophecies" of Nostradamus. Too vague. Too easy to interpret the way you want them to be, and always applied after the events by those who accept them.

Also, according to the Jews, whose holy book the OT is, Jesus did not fulfil the prophecies of a messiah.
