    Fossil evidence proving the bible.

    Why did God pick the Jews?

    Wouldn't it have been more logical (and honoust) to show himself and his commandments to other ethnical groups around the world. By only showing himself to the Jews, he made his story a creation myth like all the others. Furthermore, he showed bias by shutting the door for others to be saved...
