Garden of Eden was a setup...

[JonDarbyXIII]

The Bible is replete with evidence and the more they dig up sites in the middle east the more evidence they find in support of the folks and locations talked about in the Bible.

I know it's been said here many times, but I don't think it hurts to throw it out again.

1) Archaeology that supports the "folks and locations" does not, in any of itself, prove anything about the Bible's veracity--only that the stories were superimposed over a historical backdrop. If in 1,000 years, archaeologists uncovered NYC, it would not prove that Spiderman exists.

2) While it's all fine and good that there are some accurate historical details in the Bible, it is far more interesting to note all the things that just are not accurate. My personal favorite source is The Bible Unearthed by Israel Finkelstein, who btw is director of archaeology for Tel Aviv University
