Truith Quote: If your strongest defense is a story this old that could be as easily explained away as this, then I don't feel it worthy of my time to point out the myriad of fallacies within the idea of Christianity being logical. Furthermore, would you have society and the state of science returned to what it was in that time? If not, then the whole argument is void. Paul's actions appear in many several ancient roman documents and it states that he WAS a persecuter of Christians then out of nowhere became a pillar for there cause. Keep in mind that the people writing these things where Roman historians not Christians. in my opinion just because a story is old doesn't mean it is any less real. also in the regard to science It more backs my belief that christianity is logical than anything else. For example the science of probibility. . . . I'm sorry but I will have to come back to this again when I can find my books. sorry.
alright I still can't find the book but I remember most of the details. Using the science of probability you can figure out the chances of the prophesies in the old testament regarding Jesus coming true. If you were to take just 8 of the over 300 prophesies and calculate the chances of these specific prophesies coming true in a single human being. the number is ( and this is the part im not perfectly clear on but I know I'm close.) 10 to the 50th power. (thats 50 zeros.) the way they explain it in the book is this example. Say you cover all of Texas in silver dollars, two feet deep, pick one to single out and then have a man walk as far as he wants and pick up the exact silver dollar you singled out. AND THATS JUST 8 PROPHESIES. and yet Jesus fulfilled everyone of them regarding his first coming. and the ones regarding his second coming are made beyond obvious that they are going to happen the second time around.
