Nope.  Direct personal accounts written by the actual eyewitnesses
themselves and which agree in detail with thousands of similar
accounts written by other direct witnesses who were directly involved
provide a level of authenticity no religious text has ever even
approached.

20,000+ witnessed the biblical accounts of the life and times of Jesus Christ.
And the have given us the same quality of testament that you have for any
worldly event before 125 years ago after the last eye witness has died.

Perhaps they did or perhaps they didn't.  There is no verified
evidence he even existed.

Accounts personally recorded by the witnesses themselves?  Separate
accounts, each from his own viewpoint, and unrelated to any other
accounts?  Or to your book of myths?

I think not.

Sorry.  A preponderance of evidence supports the fact that there
actually was such a war, and this independent and verified evidence is
available for anyone to inspect.

What evidence, and how is it qualitatively  any different than what we have for
the events of the life of the Son of God.  You can look at a musket ball all
day, and maybe find the place of manufacture in England.  Maybe it was dropped
by someone.  You can look at a document, a painting and I can look at a document
and a painting.

Since you refuse to acknowledge the difference between one unverified
source and thousands of independently verified sources no additional
discussion is possible.

Based upon your logic every word in Gone With the Wind describes an
true and accurate account of actual events.

As much reason as there is to believe any of the drivel in your book
of superstitions.

What do you have that has absolutely no connection, directly or
indirectly, with your bible?  Direct verified accounts or 'paintings'
by people who never heard of that bible or any person or organization
connected to it?

What 'artifacts' what are independent of such sources?

Do you understand what 'independent' or 'verified' means?

You don't have a clue as to what I have nor how it is found in the bible. You're
going to have to do some quick study if you want to engage in serious
discussion.

Yet you constantly claim that you've presented evidence here. Thanks for 
admitting that you're a liar, earl.

You don't have the faculties to grasp the evidence.  You reflect this

You haven't provided any evidence to grasp. You simply vacillate between 
saying the bible is god's word and saying it's some goat herders word. You 
haven't got a shred of evidence and you prove that every time you make 
vacuous claims to the contrary.

Which means what?  Numbers alone prove something?

As I have frequently asked and you of course have never answered -
does that mean back when your superstition was just starting out and
only a few people had even heard of it does that mean the numbers
involved made it invalid?

Just how many does it take to 'prove' a superstition is valid?

Because it has never been validated as far as what it says is
concerned.  How does anyone know it's contents are not pure mythology?
After all, a lot of it is a bit unlikely, and physically impossible.
