Ever heard of the following?
  1. Noah's Flood
  2. Tower of Babel
  3. Parting of the Red Sea
  4. Fall of Jerico
  5. David and Goliath
  6. Daniel in the Lion's Den
Those are known as "Old Testament events."

The reason is simple: they happened in Old Testament times.

You know? those dates that have "BC" after them?

Ever heard of the Big Bang?

It supposedly occurred in 13,700,000,000 BC.

Guess what that means?

It means it is an Old Testament event.

Make sense now?

So your question is just asking if the Big Bang occurred before or after the alleged birth of Jesus.

Why did you ask this question, AV? You obviously already know the answer. Are you next going to claim that since it isn't mentioned in the Bible then the BB is obviously fake? Will you claim the Big Bang can take a hike? (Cue AV saying, "The Big Bang can take... aw, Kylie beat me to it." :p )

The Bible is not flawed, but some interpretations are. ALL the men of the Bible were corrupt, just as all men are corrupt today.

*** A person doesn't have to be the sharpest tool in the shed to figure out that men capable of killing the Son of God were capable of creating books wherein they are so prominently featured above the "Gentile dogs" (a term they invented in their bigoted writings). Anyway, one only needs to look at the actual history of the so called "chosen people" compared to their claims of an age which we have no history books for.

I regard our future Jewish brethren as "God's chosen" since they are examples of mankind without Christ. God Bless you
The Bible is neither a historically accurate or philosophically consistent document. It was written by flawed, biased men. It contains a lot of "fake news".

Is Urantia a synonym for the Book of Mormon, or the Quran? It sure sounds like it.

False , Big Bang is New Testament event .
Actually you're right.

2 Peter 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.

Scientists have the cart before the horse ... as usual.

No, it's the heavenly name of our world. Closed minded religious people will hate it like the same kind of people hated Jesus who authorized it.

I seem to recall that he managed to authorise the Book of Mormon as well.

He said to be aware of false prophets not true ones.

The authors of the four gospels would have done everything they could to get their gospels copied, and distributed throughout the Roman world.

If somebody copies the Urantia book, they get sued. Clearly, revelations from God nowadays come with a price tag attached.

They wouldn't be sued and would loose if they did. The Urantia Book no longer has a copyright, It's in the public domain. There were early court battles as the book was in the trust and under a copyright lest it be tampered with. Eventually an appeals court judge ruled that celestial beings can't have a copyright, that "since the Conduit had deceased prior to 1983, only the Conduit's heirs would have been eligible to renew the copyright in 1983 and, since they had not done so, the Urantia Foundation's copyright on the book had expired and the book had therefore passed into the public domain. This decision was upheld on appeal." source wiki

False, and I hope your slander of the Bible's Author doesn't preclude your entry into heaven. Since it was written by the Spirit of Truth, it MUST agree with every discovery of Science and History. IF it doesn't, your interpretation is False. IMHO

It's the spirit of truth, and just a little common sense, that can set men free from fear of church retaliation and societal indoctrination. Bible worshipers live in a self constructed bubble wherein they deny facts and embrace the speculation and conjecture of ancient, superstitious men.

Jesus set men free to live lives if originality before God.
