Why do Christians trust the Bible?

[Chad32]

Ok you bring me personal proof that a god did it, with demonstrations that things can be spoken into existence, and I'll believe it. You know very well that that's not what I meant by personal research. Don't start doing the "you weren't there" argument that you seem to be going for, because it doesn't help either of our cases.

Science is verified by many researchers that all use data to come to the same conclusion, instead of branching off into thousands of different conclusions like religion does, and when new information comes along scientists will accept it and change their views instead of killing the dissenter.

Don't ask me for proof. Its passing on the burden of proof, as you people use as a method to sneak out of debates.

Again, you using circular reasoning. Just because the researchers said so it must be true. How is that any different from what we say?

You don't have evidence that can be verified like scientists can. I don't have to prove the big bang happened, because I don't really care if anyone believes it or not. No one is going to reward or punish people according to their belief in the big bang. I'm not even sure why christians seem to be fixated on it, because even if we all agreed the universe needed a god to create it, you are no closer to proving yours exists. You want me to believe a god created the universe? Fine. I'm a deist. Now what?
