If I copied the address (below) correctly, This is one of Albert Lin's investigations into Bible stories with scientific skepticism. (Sodom and Gomorrah, the "Red Sea" story which he found t
o be the wrong "sea" the Hebrews actually escaped through). Nevertheless, The real proof is supposed to be found in changed lives from harmful behaviors to helpful acts. Jesus is still on trial. His miracles gave credence to the claims of Messiah as did His teachings. The problem, of course, as in any courtroom trial, is the reliability of the witnesses. There is nothing wrong with a healthy skepticism as opposed to disdainful criticism, which is more reflective of a mindset rather than an openness toward listening. I often find judging others of being judgmental is rather an obvious example of hypocritical think or that of people who walked and talked and ate and spent time with Jesus as recorded in ing. Anyways, you can believe my testimony: "That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked at and our hands have touched—this we proclaim concerning the Word of life. The life appeared; we have seen it and testify to it, and we proclaim to you the eternal life, which was with the Father and has appeared to us. We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you also may have fellowship with us..." 1 John 1:1-4, NIV.
By the way, thanks for responding, and Patty and I love the amazing spectacle of Nature too.
