Any physical evidence of Moses and the Exodus? Any physical evidence of Abraham? Any physical evidence of the flood? Any physical evidence of King David? Any physical evidence of Joseph in Egypt? Any physical evidence of a Garden of Eden? Any physical evidence that the Bible was created in 144 hours?

There is none, this is all accepted on faith. I have faith in God, but not in your interpretation of His word.

Do you really expect me to accept you belief that the Bible is a scientific textbook?

What is your physical evidence for God? Or is that just faith too?

Have you looked into all the creation science research on the six days of creation? Noah’s flood? Etc, etc??? I’m not kidding. How much time have you spent studying the scientist who believe the evidence points to biblical young earth creation???

Any physical evidence of Abraham?

Lets think about this a little.

What would physical evidence of Abraham really be like?

Presumably, to know whatever it was involved someone named Abraham, what would we need...something that was written with at the least the word "Abraham" right?

So wouldn't ancient writing be the most essential physical evidence one might find for the existence of ancient historical persons? And don't we have ancient manuscripts telling us there was someone named Abraham? So why would you not consider this "physical evidence"?

You said there is no physical evidence for King David?

Woops, your anti-Bible prejudice is showing.

While complaining about all those people who teach the Bible, you chose yourself someone to teach you bias and error and you ran with it.

Before charging in like a liberal on the attack, you might want to look again after having revealed your bias and exercised your blind faith that evidence would never be found.

Your faith in your own opinion, (or your faith in your teacher's opinion) led you to error and hurts your credibility.

Actual physical evidence for King David exists (more than one example, maybe three) and it is actually old news.

This is from the Biblical Archaeology Review, March-April 1994, :

From Avraham Biran and his team of archaeologists found a remarkable inscription from the 9th Century BC that refers to the 'House of David' and to the 'King of Israel'. This is the first time that the name David has been found in any inscription outside the Bible. That the inscription refers not simply to David but to the 'House of David', the dynasty of the great Israelite king, is even more remarkable.
