Your post is the words of men.

Exactly.

We are told that we can ignore the words of men because they have the words of God. It turns out they don't. They also just have the words of men.


Jesus rose from the dead in stark disagreement with your little ad hock philosophy.


Yes I do, I ask God. He says look in the word I already gave you.

So claims the words of men.

God created men. God uses men. He used prophests and apostles and others. To claim God could not use what He created when Jesus says otherwise is to do violence to Scripture.


Jesus was a man too.

Faith in lies is bad, faith in God and His words to man is good.

How do you tell the lies from the truth?

You have no way to deny the recorded history and people in Scripture, so calling them "in books" means nothing.

I can deny some of the characters of the bible just as easily as I, and you, can deny some characters of the quran, the bagavhad ghita, greek mythology, etc etc etc

One needs God and His word for that. It also is a good indication to be careful when supposed science claims stuff with no proof.

I have no reason to deny evil spirits exist!

Those supposed validations came from gospels written by men.

The gospels were circulated among many that were eyewitnesses, and could not have been false or they would have been attacked and destroyed and refuted and rebuked. From eyewitnesses to eyewitnesses. Sealed with the blood of untold multitudes of martyrs who died to verify it was true as ever true could be. Not like the so called martyrs of Islam who are called that if they kill innocent people. Real martyrs.

Those are all claims made by men.

Science doesn't deal in "proof".
Not about creation issues. However, they are pretty true when it comes to making a better toilet tissue for us.

Jesus said the words of God were the words He gave through men. So it is the very same thing in this case because He made it so.

I don't think you understood the question...
Here is your question:

If the entire universe and everything in it is designed, how would you tell the difference between design and non-design?

We could use our brains that God gave us. When I look at a pile of manure, I see that someone stacked it up there. If I look at a pile of thread, I do not see a well sewn shirt. When I look at a clock, I do not see a pile of random bits.
