So do you have a source for what is to be determined “absurd” or not “absurd”? Has science determined such? I’m not sure how or where you researched or what methods you used in ascertaining that the stories of the Bible are absurd. Absurdities are to be defined how? By what personal standard? By what objective standard not defined by personal bias? Can I trust that your own standards are them selves ...not absurd? Have all knowing space aliens given you the transcendental overarching book of how absurdities are to be judged? Are absurdities to be assigned negative moral qualities once they are assigned by questionable personal bias to be indeed...absurd?
Who is your Deist God that I should be mindful of his definitions of absurdity?
The absurdity is by my own opinion that an all powerful god would have resort to such extreme measures to control mankind who he created. Such as drowning all except one family and sending a son to become a blood sacrifice to excuse the sins of those that he created. You may have another definition of what is absurd.
The research is to find evidence that the events in the Bible occurred in historical records other than the Bible.
My Deist god is simply an intelligence that put the creation of the universe in motion, ie the Big Bang, that is beyond human capabilities to understand at least for now. So as such it has no definition what is absurd.
