Reader's Digest ….. always use editors for every story they include.
Which is why they acknowledge the editors and abridgers, and put a date on every issue.

The Council signed what? Whom do they acknowledge as the writers of the autographs?
The Council didn't write the N.T.
Did Hitler use "science" to destroy lives?
Do we have sufficient numbers of nukes to kill 7 billion people?
Do you know scientists who use their knowledge to flaunt their smarts?
And you provide no legitimate reason not to seek HIM (and you pretend to be a scientist).

And you refuse to define evidence. And you think you are fooling me? Am I your GOD? Codependency, AL.

Well someone must have written it- because we have lots of copies of it. It didn't write itself.

So who did write it?

That lie is getting particularly tiresome.

Define evidence before you say I didn't provide any.

We already did.

And you have not produced any evidence.

Al was quick to address a different topic while he has never followed through on questions like these which emerged from his previous dubious statements.

What white lie?
You choose. All I require is that it is harmless and that you know it is untrue. Would $15M be acceptable?

Let me see the certified check with the terms signed by a notary and I'll swear not to keep badgering you until you have a nervous breakdown.
I'll take that as a yes, then. Thus demonstrating the invalidity of the Templeton Prize as a guarantee of honesty or accuracy.
Over and out.

So the question is what do you mean by "believe"? Or indeed "bible"? A ragbag of texts written in various languages over some 4000 years, with bits of history, bits of statute law, various poems, raving mysticism, sex and violence, and "eyewitness" accounts by people who weren't alive at the time. There's certainly evidence that Caucasians had a single female ancestor, but none for a snake and an apple, and Eve still doesn't explain the other races on the planet.

I think that the story of Lazarus's being raised from dead after 4 days when the odour of corruption was upon him was added when doubters began to be unconvinced by the other "miracles"
