No, the bible isn't much older than that.[Sorry you couldn't support your claims, it is older, though] Many of the books are; the bible as a whole is actually less than that.
To disbelieve it all until it is evidenced is rational; to note that there is no evidence is rational. Not a single documented 'miraculous healing' exists.
[Well, I accept the bible as a document. So we'll have to disagree.
Things like this probably would not help you.

". But all the cases were either terminal or incurrable and all of them, within a year, returned to full health and pain free existences.
Dr. Richard Steiner, of the American Board of Pathology, head of department of Pathology Long Beach Community Hosptial reviwed several of the slides. William Olson, American Board of Internal Medicine and head of Isatope Department at Long Beach Community Hospital, and several radiologists form that Hospital also consulted on the rest of the cases."
Documented cases of the dead returning to tell all----
---The Science of the Paranormal
For more than fifteen years, Dr. Melvin Morse, a practicing pediatrician and renowned researcher, has studied the NDEs of hundreds of children. His bestsellers, Closer to the Light and Transformed by the Light, convinced millions that there is indeed something that lies beyond "bodily death" - and that NDEs profoundly transform peoples’ lives for the better. Now, Morse continues his compelling scientific probe into the mysteries of life and death - offering a bold and provocative new theory on what NDEs reveal about mind-body interactions, human memory, and the part of our brain that literally communicates with God."

Then there is the catholic stuff
The fully documented, miraculous cures, recognized by the Church and attributed to the intercession of Our Lady at the spring at Massabielle (Lourdes), which was discovered by St. Bernadette at Our Lady's request, are so numerous that they require no elaboration here. Suffice it to say that the Lourde's medical bureau is the world's foremost authority (in service to the Church) on miraculous cures: one of the first miraculous cures related to Lourdes, that of a man blind in one eye, due to heavy scar tissue, occurred soon after the apparitions began. The man's vision was restored completely, and according to his doctor it was a physical impossibility, since the scar tissue remained. The cures worked in bygone times focused attention principally upon their divine origin, but modern miraculous cures are studied by scientists for their own sake, for example by Mangin and Alexis Carrel, who came back many times to Lourdes in search of the secret of cellular multiplication in cures of wounds and fistulae. In addition, medical theses have been written about them. (83)

Umm...no. Learn some science and find out.
[No use, PO science can't tell you that, get a clue]
All very interesting - nice interpretation by you. Sadly, it in no way supports your claim that the bible contains "Nations even named, predicted before they rose to power. Pretty well all major world powers as a matter of fact."
I already said I had been thinking of the leader of the nation, Cyrus, named long long before he was born, or his country came to power even. His country was predicted, by the way, as those that came after it were as well! Yes pretty well all were predicted! The king of one even named! Alexander the great's rapid conquests also foretold, Jeus birthplace, and just scores and scores of things.
The kingdom to come after Babylon was named, as well
"
Da 5:28 PERES; Thy
kingdom is divided, and
given to the Medes and Persians. (this was when the hand wrote on the wall!) So, there you go,
nations named, as well as kings, read'm and weep!)
