*sigh* You do know that using the Bible to prove the Bible is the spiritual equivalent of saying ‘I found it on the Internet, it must be true’, don't you?

You won’t accept anything else to prove the spiritual.

Science isn’t allowed to do it because the supernatural is allegedly outside the realm of science.

Anytime someone tries to philosophize about it, they’re told it’s not *logical*.

Miracles don’t count either because you can’t tell what the source is.

Personal experience is discredited because it’s too subjective.

There is nothing that a good atheist will accept as proof of the supernatural because they have decreed beforehand that nothing is capable of proving the supernatural, so they reject everything out of hand before the discussion starts.

I honestly don’t see how that’s any different than scientists looking at the fossil record and deciding upon an explanation for it (ToE) and then declaring that every fossil they henceforth find supports their theory. Of course it would because they have already decided that it would a priori.

The internet doesn’t have 0ver 600 prophesies that came 100% true- the bible is more solid and certain and trustworthy than your proposed outcoem I’m afraid.
