Do you believe in a Creator G-d?
Most Diests do believe in a Creator so I was asking to see where you were along those lines.
So what do you think of Ps 19:1 or Romans 1:20 ?
However, please watch this short video and assess accordingly.
The Bible says, "The Lord knows those who are his."
Wake me up if there's any peer-reviewed research indicating that such people exist.
Because a YouTube video has no credibility at all.
How do you know it is with out error.
Do remember untill the hitties were found in Turkey the bible was derided for inventing people.
The normal way of treating any book/information is to assume it is trustworthy untill shown not to be.
Right, we found evidence of Hittites and Pontius Pilate. But the same field of study concluded that the story of Jericho is false and that the Jews scavenged a dead city. Why cherry pick?
And there archelogists who dispute Kenyons dating of Jericho saying the date fits that of the Israelite invassion of palistine.
Walls found flat, storeage jars found full of carbonised grain, evidence of widespread burning, all evidence that fits Joshuas discription.It's not about the date of when the invasion occurred. It's about the fact that there was no battle.

Evidence of an actual battle?
Do you believe in a Creator G-d?
There was an article a couple decades ago by Professor Byrant Wood about the archaeology of Jericho seeming to confirm some aspects of the Biblical narrative.
Secrets of the Bible: The Fall of Jericho with Dr. Bryant Wood
Maybe because the battle was the Lords? There is nothing in Joshua about a 'normal' battle with those in Jericho. The city's walls were weakened by the sound waves, after six days of this the walls fell, leaving the city wide open for conquering.It's not about the date of when the invasion occurred. It's about the fact that there was no battle.

It seems this is all he's known for. His own wikipedia page says that his account is contradicted by carbon dating.

Of the destruction of a city.Evidence of an actual battle?
Of the destruction of a city.
Joshua discribed a city captured but not plundered. To a subsistance farming or nomadic herders grain was valuable and would not be lightly abandoned.
I'm asking if there is evidence of a battle. Limbs dismembered as though by a sword. Large patches of blood soaked into the ground. Chips of shields. Evidence.
Remember......when reading the Bible, CONTEXT is KING, NV!
From looking at the embedded contexts of what Rahab (the sinner) is reported to have said in the book of Joshua, I'm guessing that if the people of Jericho had initially surrendered to the Israelites in recognition of the presence and truth of God.........................they too would ultimately have been spared and would have been later incorporated into Israel.
As it is, the people of Jericho decided rather, like Pharoah, to unrepentently "hole-up" in their defenses and place their bets on their own false 'gods.'
