Depends if you want to classify it as a miracle or a fact. A fact requires evidence, a miracle does not.

Wrong answer. The internet 'bot is

a) asking for empirical evidence that David and/or Goliath even existed and

b) rejecting the Hebrew historical records which are preserved today in the Bible.

Before answering the internet 'bot, perhaps it should be required to show empirical evidence that it is human.

Arguing with software is pointless.

You are absolutely correct!

In the case of fact, the "proofs" used can be called into question, which ususally lead to refutation and/or confirmation; but in either case, an advance in knowledge.

In the case of the "miracle"; it requires nothing but belief; it leads to no advance in knowledge and sometimes causes "difficulties" between the believer and the "non-believer".

I'll take fact.
