[QUOTE=lurch67]Thats just so week on so many levels, for starters the bible is proof of nothing.[/QUOTE]
False. John the Disciple saw things himself. Luke the Physician talked to many people healed by Jesus. Deny it if you want, jump through the loopholes, but it happened. People just don't rise from the dead in the Name of Jesus Christ and no other name on accident. That power is real.

Also people are resurrected and healed in the Name of Jesus Christ today, so there is supernatural evidence for the Resurrection as well.[/QUOTE]
The bible is not archaeological evidence.

That isn't only about the Bible. And it has stood the tests of thousands of years, it is a piece of archeology, no doubt about that.

Yea, but that faith raises the dead.

Some of those writings are over 100 years after Jesus supposedly died. That is not archaeological evidence.

You can't be serious....or you just might be. I believe in raising the dead as zombies, but not fully functional human beings. Have you seen movies like dawn of the dead?

Actually, it can only be as old as 40 years old. But the Book of Acts was written by Luke before the Gospel of Luke, as early as 37AD to 40AD. All the things that happened in the Pentecost is the affirmation of the healing and spiritual power of Jesus Christ. Which affirms the Gospel.

None of that is scientific.

No, like I know stuff like this happens in North Africa every now and then. I had a friend who witnessed a resurrection. He has a friend that goes to UT hospital to pray over patients. He never prayed over the dead though. There was a guy who has been dead for several hours and they went to harvest his organs, and he said "hey can I pray for him" and they said "why? hes dead?" and he said "I know, but I want to see if he can come back to life" and they said "uh sure go ahead". My friend Nick was sitting on the bench outside the room. His friend laid hands on the dead body and said "In the Name of Jesus Christ I command you to live", and he came out the door and the man was following him. Healing still happens today, no doubt.

They tested the age of the scrolls. They took scientific tests on the ages of the papyrus. Those are accurate dates.

pretty much all of them are. regardless, there are no bibles that are material artifacts from the immediate decades after his death.

Scientific tests on ages of scrolls are scientific findings :facepalm
