Because texts can be altered. I know you believe the Bible is something that cannot ever be changed... but texts can be and always have been changed. Also, when they are written they are biased. For example... Pilate washing his hands of Jesus' execution. Did he do this or was this the authors attempt to lay the blame on the Jews and reconcile with the Roman Empire?How is the written report of the history of 32AD and carved stones any more supportive of the people you mentioned than the jewish history in the New Testament?
We seek corroboration when we try to verify historical happenings.
Because there is no reason to falsify the dedication of a theater.If we want to doubt everything as evidence, why not assume that the carved rocks and such were merely concurrent aids and appendages to the lies being fabriacted back then?
We can. But it's healthy to doubt and verify.We can discredit and deny anything for that matter.
The "Big Bang" simply says that at some point in the past there was an expansion that was the beginning of the universe as we currently know it. We have no idea if this is just one of many in a multiverse or ... well, or what? We don't know. To pretend the authors of the Bible knew is just silly.But what about Big Bang which agrees that once there was an in the beginning.
No.Does not that speak for itself?
