But all this merely distracts from the point. The ONLY religious text that is predominantly history DESIGNED TO DEMONSTRATE THE EXISTENCE AND NATURE OF GOD (which the writings of Homer are not) is the Bible.
Um what about the gods of my ancestors huh, i forgot witch god gave us something to plant wen we come to our "promised" land if it will grow we are at the right spot. We do grow the stuff and our people did migrate to Slovenia, we are Slovans we came from behind the Carpathians.
So our gods must be true then right.
Or the norse gods that gave their people the berserker ability, its not only in their legends its even told in lands they where hired as mercenaries. No blade could harm them, though they did seem susceptible to blunt force trauma.
Every religion has bits an pieces of real history mashed in to it including the bible. Just like harry potter books mention real places. That does not mean harry was/is real.
You want to prove to me that your god is real infect yourself with leprosy then perform the cure written in the bible if it works we can talk further.
Christianity, One woman's lie about an affair that got seriously out of hand
What are the Christians gonna do to me ..... Forgive me, good luck with that.
