Also, why is Bible better than Qur'an or Bhagavad Gita?
The "good ole" 1950's would be before my time... so - science fiction. I don't own a DeLorean.
What is true, believe it or not, is the Scripture I quoted earlier, "For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart." - Hebrews 4:12, "So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God." - Romans 10:17
"It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life." - John 6:63
"for prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit." - 2 Peter 1:21
That's the difference in principle and practice/reality between the Holy Bible and other books you mention.
The fundamental difference in belief? - "Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.” - Acts 4:12 - that is, the Lord JESUS, the CHRIST - the Living Word.
^^^^^^ This is only "evidence" that you like what you believe. It is NOT evidence that the book is reliable in any historical or scientific context.
Religion is like waiting at the DMV, get in line take a number, you are not special.
