    Noah was apparently 600 years old when God told him to build the ark and it took him 100 years to finish it.

    Personally, I find it a little strange that someone would base their entire life on trying to disprove God. I thought atheists were supposed to be apathetic. :rolleyes:

    I saw it again Rud and the guy is smart by all means and read about how the Jews feel that J.C. might of not been real and that even the Cesear of that time might of not been the one in the Bible but Jews to me are full of pride, they seem to know the Torah in and out and KNOW the J.C. was the messiah but have to much pride in accepting it.

    I seem to chose to believe in the bible for the fact of how I was taught about the book of Revelations at a young age and learned about its signs and whats to come. So when I turn on the TV and see what goes on, It kind of and some what reflects stuff written in Revelation. So I base my belief of that and what its unraveling into day world.

    same thing I was thinking! it's funny and crazy on how much attention they give the bible if its fake. The guy came off like a satanist. The Satanic bible is full of examples in how to contratic it.

    Satanic Bible?

    What's interesting is that a lot of research and attention surrounds the Bible whether or not the person doing the research believes that it is the word of God. Secularists, theists, et al all focus attention on the Bible one way or another.

    The very nature of the Bible demands attention.

    I found this interesting discussion on the census that he says didn't take place:
    HOW could Jesus, who grew up in Nazareth and was commonly known as the Nazarene, have been born in Bethlehem, some 90 miles [150 km] away? Luke explains: “Now in those days [before Jesus’ birth] a decree went forth from Caesar Augustus for all the inhabited earth to be registered; (this first registration took place when Quirinius was governor of Syria;) and all people went traveling to be registered, each one to his own city.”—Luke 1:1; 2:1-3.

    Critics widely attack this passage as a blunder or, worse, a fabrication. They insist that this census and the governorship of Quirinius took place in 6 or 7 C.E. If they are right, this would cast serious doubt on Luke’s account, for the evidence suggests that Jesus was born in 2 B.C.E. But these critics ignore two key facts. First, Luke acknowledges that there was more than one census—note that he refers to “this first registration.” He was well aware of another, later registration. (Acts 5:37) This later census is the same one that the historian Josephus described, which occurred in 6 C.E. Second, the governorship of Quirinius does not force us to assign Jesus’ birth to that late date. Why? Because Quirinius evidently served in that post twice. Many scholars recognize that his first term fell about 2 B.C.E.

    Some critics say that Luke invented the census to create a reason for Jesus to be born in Bethlehem, thereby fulfilling the prophecy of Micah 5:2. This theory makes Luke a willful liar, and no critic can reconcile such an allegation with the scrupulous historian who wrote the Gospel and the book of Acts.

    Something else no critic can explain: The census itself fulfilled a prophecy! In the sixth century B.C.E., Daniel prophesied about a ruler who would be “causing an exactor to pass through the splendid kingdom.” Did this apply to Augustus and his order to carry out a census in Israel? Well, the prophecy goes on to foretell that the Messiah, or “Leader of the covenant,” would be “broken” during the reign of this ruler’s successor. Jesus was indeed “broken,” executed, during the reign of Augustus’ successor, Tiberius.—Daniel 11:20-22.
