Again = I have not been trying to argue that the Bible proves the divinity of Jesus.
But you ignore it.
I have been saying that the Bible is true and accurate in its historical record - which spans thousands of years, thousands of individuals, hundreds of cities, dozens of “rulers” or leaders who are mentioned in historical context with great detail along with dates given with great detail.
Thus REASON says such an accurate work of this magnitude and impact demands a verdict of truth on ALL it asserts.
Does this “all” include the deity of Jesus Christ? OF course it does. But it is REASON that says such a judgement is warranted.
And, that is only ONE Reason - but it is a big one,
Don’t be afraid to really investigate
The Bible’s author is not afraid of challenges to the Bible’s accuracy - on ALL its subjects.
I haven’t asked for proof for the divinity of Christ. I have asked for evidence all along. I understand the difference.
What you’ve asserted so far is that the physically verifiable sections of the Bible have been so widely supported by archeological and historical evidence that is is reasonable to assume that the supernatural parts are also equally supportable.
I disagree. I have provided an example of how archeology does not support the bible, which you have ignored. That is one. There are many more.
Many mythological stories around the world can point to physical remains that show that there was a least a grain of truth in it’s original telling but none of them are evidence of the supernatural.
