Biblical Archaeology.

[mickiel]

We have Solomons Pool and Conduits from his Pools and we also have his Copper mines. All recorded in the bible, all there and real for anyone to see for themselves.

And all these finds are little support ramps for the God in the bible to be just as real.

Peace.

You make a lot of claims Mickiel. Do you have any academic articles on the Internet that support them?

On May 8th,2007 archaeologist unearthed " Herod the Greats tomb." They found his grave, sarcophagus and mausoleum on mount Herodiums northeastern slope. A stunning find, he was the Roman appointed King of Judea from 37 to 4 BCE.

Yet another biblical characther varified, yet another notch in the bible belt.

Peace.

Why don't you provide proof that the statements are not true.

Do that.

during our last conversation you said you weren't trying to use biblical archeology as a platform for proving the existence of god.

As pointed out numerous times the archeological accuracy of the bible is COMPLETELY separate from the mythological ones.

Not at first, no, but eventually they morph into each other. God directed the bible to be written; it then stands to reason that if we have true biblical characthers, true biblical places and true biblical things, ( Person, Place and thing) which we do, then that greatly improves the chance that God is a real Characther himself.

I think that is reasonable.

Peace.

I was asked why I view the " Sea of Galilee" as significant biblical history, this biblical sea that is still there. Well the sea has no natural harbors and was in existence as early as the " Bronze Age 3300-2300 BC. Capernaum and Magdala are along its shores, two other biblical citys. 35 Species of fish make their home in this sea, Sardines, Catfish and "Musht Fish", the most stable of them today.

Jesus lived in Capernaum and called four of his disciples from there, John 2 and Matt. 4. He performed many miracles along its shore, Luke 8:22-25, Mark 6:47-52.

Following his ressurection, Jesus actually " Cooked Breakfast" on the shore for seven of his disciples, John 21.

The bible mentions " Sargon" Isaiah 20:1. Historians tried to claim the bible was incorrect, and as so often, archaeology stepped in and proved the bible was on target again. Archaeologist discovered Sargons palace, along with statues of him and records. Even bricks with valuable inscriptions on them.

Yet again the evidence substains and validates the bible as an historical record.

According to your theory this would mean that Harry potter is real, Sherlock holmes, power rangers, Stuart little, all the gods in the Greek, roman, Egyptian pantheons.

Yep that seems reasonable.

I do not agree with the use of myths to prove reality points. Atheist depend on the use of myths to support what they feel are real issues, I consider that to be useless contridiction, which I willnot accept. I do not accept your use of these myths to support your point.

Wait you're saying that references to real life events and places determines the truth of a piece of literature.

Either you have to admit that these references do not indicate the truthfulness or you are an ignorant hypocrite. You can't use something as evidence and then just ignore everything else that satisfies your criteria of truth.

My responses to you are over, I am tired of your tendency to " Go off" and loose respect in a conversation.

I will no longer respond to you on this website.

Peace in your life.

I'm still not exactly sure what your point here is. I read the Da Vinci Code when it first came out. In it, the paintings exist. The cities that they go through exist. Many of the buildings were real. They exist today and anyone could go and see them if they wanted. You could even look them up on the internet and see them.

The book was fiction though. The conspiracy ideas behind it, which were supposedly true, have been shown to be nothing more than ignorant ramblings. But does the fact that it contains actual places and items make it true? Not at all. That is exactly the same for the Bible.

It is not surprising that there are actual real places talked about in the Bible. Fiction uses that tactic as well. So just because actual places exist that are mentioned in the Bible really means nothing at all. It simply means that the writers were familiar with those places. And as I previously stated, we see this same tool used in fiction writing.

What? Someone points out the errors in your thinking and you take offense.

I showed you how your theory applied to many different books and you refused to admit the errors in your logic.

It should be noted that I gave you the choice of admitting the error or admitting your ignorant hypocricy. You chose ignorant hypocricy not me.

By all means continue with your intellectually juvenile postings. By all means continue with your ignorant refusal to admit the errors in your thinking. By all means continue with your your hate filled narcissistic rantings.

But don't come on to a discussion forum with this behaviour and cry foul when you don't receive the respect you THINK you deserve.

As I have stated before...I think in this thread...that Homer mentioned real cities and places in both The Iliad and The Odyssey. It prove that the cities and places are real, but the narratives of both are mythological. There tonnes of literature that used real locations.

The Bible do the same things. Cities and towns may well be real, but not necessarily the events being real or historical.

I still don't think you have proven a thing with your biblical archaeology, mickiel. You have only just proven that you can easily scoff other people perspective as being imaginary or mythological, but you have failed to see that the bible is completely useless as historical or archaeological sources, mickiel.

That's not entirely true, are various archeological and historical references in the bible. This is of course to be expected since it was written in the era.

What Mick fails to see (once again this is totally expected) that that only proves the historical and archeological facts. Not the mythical.

This has been pointed out to him numerous times but as is expected he is unable to accept it.
