We don't have to prove "not".

Easy enough the gospel is a set of instructions. follow the instructions... find God. Find God the gospel has been vetted. Even if you are inepthe and can not follow the directions. know others have

I did a wee Google for 'errors in the Gospel of Mark' and got 5 660 000 hits. If 1/10 of 1% of those are on target, there are at least 5660 web pages addressing such errors.
Gawd, this stuff is easy.

All that proves is that the author of gMark was a careful writer. It doesn't support even one supernatural claim; it's just a story until supported with solid, testable empirical evidence.

Then why did later redactors invent four or five (that we have found) separate endings for that particular pile of shit?

The gospels are not a "set of instructions".
(That crap is the fundy drivel they teach in Sunday School to 3rd Graders.)
The gospels are proclamations of belief by the followers, formulated for proclamation in liturgical events, (almost no one was literate at the time, and almost no one had a copy, and no one sat around "reading" anything). There were hundreds of gospels. Some of them were batshit crazy ... (well all of them were, actually).
The Gospel of Thomas : "(114) Simon Peter said to them, "Mary should leave us, for females are not worthy of life." Jesus said, "See, I am going to attract her to make her male so that she too might become a living spirit that resembles you males. For every female (element) that makes itself male will enter the kingdom of heaven." LMAO
Of the worlds best known scholars of the NT, not one calls the gospels "a set of instructions", not that Drich cares about scholarship.
Your "hermeneutic" of insult and derision is not exactly what Christians preach. (You certainly don't claim to be one, I hope).
There is a book you should read. You can get it on Amazon : "How Not To Share Your Faith"
Every religion is true one way or another. It is true when understood metaphorically. But when it gets stuck in its own metaphors, interpreting them as facts, then you are in trouble. - Joseph Campbell

So I went to reread gospel of Mark. Huge error right off the bat. It seems to say God is real. He is not.

Actually, it proves that Lincoln just didn't look very hard.
