I was wondering why YOU were making such a fuss over it. As the latter comment, Nothing has yet proven (scientifically/arcaeologically) that the Bible is false.

"...Nothing has yet proven (scientifically/arcaeologically) that the Bible is false."
Talking snakes? Global flood? Miracles?
Yeah, nothing, that is, except for REALITY.

This just doesn't make sense. This is like saying that nothing has yet proven (scientifically/archeologically) that Hop on Pop is false. It's a BOOK. It obviously EXISTS. And things within it are STORIES. Even if you believe them word for word, which the bible itself expressly forbids, it's still a historic accounting, combined with prophecy, parable, and geneology. You can't prove that false (or true) with either science or theology.

1. Radio-carbon dating
2. Geology
3. Fossil record
4. Evolution by natural selection
5. General and special relativity
Need I go on?
By the way, has anyone else noticed how fundies don't know how to punctuate or capitalize? Or spell?
Actually, there have been several things which have disproven inerrant Biblical literalism. In addition, your logic is so flawed, that we can disprove almost nothing if we go by your logic. Disprove the Flying Spaghetti Monster with your methodology.
Nothing has yet proven that the bible is true, and there are many things in the bible that contradict the way things happen in reality (there have been no global floods, no talking animals, pi is not exactly 3, there are no four-legged insects, etc.).
arcaeologically speaking, the Ancient Egyptians didn’t keep slaves.
Of course, that fact doesn’t prove the bible false to a believer, as they shift the meaning of ‘slavery’ to some metaphor. The people were ‘slaves’ to the benefits of that pagan culture or some such drivel, changing the meaning of the Bible until it’s true…again.
Like the abortion draught the priest makes.
Or the taking of slaves in battle.
Or raping wives.
Anything that arcaeologically is wrong isn’t poetically wrong.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
