Last time I checked, Abraham lived BC not AD. According to my sources the Torah was written by Moses, I believe he lived Bc also. You like to tell me to go to websites so I'll do the same for you. Refer to http://www.chabad.org/library/article_cd...ritten.htm
which is a Jewish teaching site.
Typical. Use one set of crazies to bolster the claims of another.
There is no evidence of any written hebrew texts prior to the dead sea scrolls- which is what makes the dss so important - which date to the second century bc - 1st century ad at the earliest.
In fact, the earliest textual evidence we have for these various jewish bullshit stories is the Septuagint which was written in Greek in the 3d century bc. That, in itself, is not so surprising. The region was dominated by either the Seleucid Empire based in Syria or the Ptolemaic Empire in Egypt and both were Greek.
So "moses" didn't write shit, son.

Have you ever considered what if? What if YOU are wrong and the Christians are right? Would you care then? If not, then that's fine cuz you can suffer the consequences.

Prove what? That the septuagint is the oldest so-called biblical text?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dating_the_Bible
Quote:The Bible is a compilation of various texts or "books" of different ages. The dates of some of the texts of the Hebrew Bible (or Old Testament) are difficult to establish.
The oldest surviving Hebrew Bible manuscripts date to about the 2nd century BC (fragmentary), the oldest record of the complete text survives in a 300-130 BC[1][2] Greek translation called the Septuagint, dating to the 4th century AD (Codex Sinaiticus) and the oldest extant manuscripts of the vocalized Masoretic text upon which modern editions are based date to the 9th century AD.
Read it and weep, sonny.

Feel free to post excerpts of any older texts you can find, sonny. ( Which you will remain as you come across as about a 12 year old.)
Your lack of knowledge about your own fucking fairy tales is truly astonishing.

Exactly. By God, I think he finally gets it. You have the right to believe whatever you want just as I have the right to believe whatever I want. Today the difference is that you guys arent overwhelming me and I am not responding to your baits, whereas, you seem to be angry with me. I've never understood...if atheism isnt a religion, and you dont believe in any kind of God, why do you care what anyone else believes? I mean, how is a religion of love, which is what true Christianity is, dangerous to you?
I'd like to hear what you all have to say on this subject?

He did cite it, you clueless fuckwit. In addition, the link he cited contains several references that you're free to follow up on your own.
Nobody here is obligated to spoon feed you.

Probably because of the bullshit Christians try to shovel on us in schools, the law, etc.
If you kept your delusions to yourselves, I doubt anyone would care.
