Re: spurious is a poor choice of wording.
just ask them. To tell you step by every step how each event occurred, and ask for the scientifically required hard evidence to prove each step.
OK, I'll follow your advice.
1.) There's a "theory" going around that God wrote the bible. Scientifically prove it. Please explain each step of how God did this in detail and your evidence for it.
2.) There's a "theory" going around that God exists. Scientifically prove it. Explain all you steps and evidence.
3.) You have said a number of times "Jesus said". However I am not aware of any book that Jesus wrote so you must really be saying someone said that Jesus said. Is this correct? Also if what Jesus had to say was so important WHY didn't he write it down?
To answer these questions I do not consider the following psychological expierence described by William James to be of any value in answering 1 through 3. So make sure you don't use it!
a. you sense there is a higher control or power behind reality
b. you feel a oneness with the world and nature
c. you realize profound "truths" you did not realize before
d. everything looks new, alive, and beautiful
e. you are overwhelmed with happiness and ectasy
f. all of your worries fall away
g. you cannot express this experience in words
h. you are ABSOLUTELY certain about the importance of this
experience
Note "truths" under c, not real truths, you just think they are.
I got the above expierence here:

You might read it before you answer.
