But you still think there is no good answer so no matter what I say it won't be good enough for you so why waste both of our time when we already know the result? Tell me this what criteria did you use to decide that none of the Bible's are right? I bet you can't tell me.
I don't know whether or not you have a good answer - but the more
you avoid the question - the less likely it seems that you do.
2. You would lose your bet.
In a nutshell: I don't believe Harry Potter is real.

Both are books.
One is boring fantasy.
The other is a jolly good read.

You seem to know nothing of its origins or its evolution into the
many Bibles in use today.
I would assume you don't know much about Christianity either.
(Were you the dumbass who thought "Immaculate Conception"
related to Jesus?)

Originally posted by wolfgang59Conversely, you believe that:
Adam and Eve.
The Flood.
The crucifixion.
Feeding the 3,000/5,000/whatever
1. Life came about by accident, something that can't even be duplicated by intelligent beings
2. You think there was no flood when every ancient culture in that region has a flood myth. To even know what a flood is one would have to have a point of reference, so yea, there was a flood.
3. Jesus was crucified. Most historians have no issue with this.
4. Feeding of the 5000? Jesus fed them all with a few fish and pieces of bread according to the Bible. You laugh at this, but according to Dims, Obama was going to give health insurance to 30 million more people while lowering premiums and providing the same level of health care and letting us all keep our own doctors and coverage. To you, that was believable?
