The Bible is a Documentary Evidence so it Speaks and Must Speak for itself! And the Proof of its contents is seen all around the world eg Egypt and Israel, the Major players in the Bible are there for all to see.

Thus, when you were in school you were told about the stories of the Tortoise and the Hare, why the Tortoise's shell is cracked, why the tortoise is bald, the good son vs the bad son, the good wife vs the bad wife, and other stories.etc

What was the point or gain of those stories? To guide our way so that we do not make the same errors or mistakes they did on one hand and to obtain the similar Goodnesses they obtained on the other hand.

So whether it is a History Book or a Scary Fictional Novel, the most important thing is whether you use the information contained therein to improve yourself (and others) or destroy yourself (and others) or you can ultimately discard it as when a teacher was teaching in front of the class.

For me the lessons in the Bible are as if I eat Life giving Fruits and Foods everyday, keeping me refreshed, strong, healthy and wealthy!

The evidence for gods (not existence, mind), is the vast amount of written word that exists on the topic. It's probably insufficient for you if you expect physical material evidence that you can weigh and measure. The tortoise and the hare in Aesop Fables does not exist, yet we learn quite a lot from the fables about them. Philosophy too cannot be measured or weighed, yet no sane person would claim philosophy does not exist.

"Disbelief (and belief) is not at all in the business of searching or knowing". It is about making things up in ones head usually with very little attempt to understand before believing or disbelieving it, and is what I've called "intellectually lazy and unequivocally dishonest". An "intellectually robust and unequivocally honest" person would first seek an understanding of what is meant instead of discarding it as you are so swift to do. It is afterall in no way intellectually sound to reject (or accept) claims one does not understand. And asking 'Christians' and 'Muslims', who can only proclaim what they believe, is like asking random people in the street about calculus. But then, your question is about "exist", so you're probably asking the right people. You'd go elsewhere if you were seeking to understand.

As to straw, I'm relying on the fact that unlike your belief about me, you yourself "know the meaning of the words you use". If you did, you'd see this thread is all about strawmanning, as in stating the beliefs of some and equating it to the understanding of all then whacking it all down. Nowhere have I found you seeking to understand the obfuscated complex issue called gods which have existed even since humans have reflected.

And yes, "not good enough" for someone of your intellectual ability. Though I confess that's just a belief of mine.

Slynation:
I am saddened you didn't even considered the scores of humans murdered by the Lioness as a deplorable act.....Maxi....!! Even in most countries,they do kill Lions hunting humans so it's good riddance....

You must sabi the book by force
Seriously,my husband is in the academics and there is no day he does not lament about the educational sector in Nigeria.

The ease of study and access to materials is top notch..

There is a reciprocal scheme called SCONUL. The scheme covers most of the university libraries in the UK. It allows many university library users to borrow or use books and journals at other libraries which belong to the scheme.
So a student of Heriot-Watt can borrow or use books from the library of University of Manchester and vice versa..

Lion killers are out in force baying for blood.

"Kill it", they yell, "kill it", is all they seem to know.

A lion that's worth more to them alive than dead.

Then they are surprised that there are no lions left.

I'd mention you all, but you are not worth the time.

Arkmanbuddy:
Keep quiet, Ogbeni. Stop saying what you're ignorant of. Western nations kill man-eating wild animals, they just won't come out and say. No man-eating Wolf, Bear or Tiger is left in the wild. They kill them.

There was a man-eating Wolf in Alaska few years back. After it struck, more than 8 wolves were killed to deter them from striking again, it put fear into them.

MaxInDHouse:
"Go and do likewise" was a statement from Jesus to a none believer not a Christian!

DCatt:
Date may or may not have been shifted. Dates are with twist, if we know, it means the enemies know too and that's why there are delays and changes.

If the book of the Jews (the Old Testament) and the Book of the Christians (the Old Testament plus the New Testament) has been corrupted
1. Why do you still need it to validate your Prophet?

shadeyinka:
2. Did the Jews and the Christians conspire to corrupt their scriptures?

shadeyinka:
3. Can you give a date (when) to the corruption?

shadeyinka:
4. Can you give the objective (why) of the corruption?

shadeyinka:
5. Can you show us what was corrupted?

shadeyinka:
How can you tell me that a $100 bill is fake without showing me the original? Does it make any sense to you?

shadeyinka:
Could it be that you simply want to give "a dog a bad name" to justify drowning it?

budaatum:
Regarding the Bible

Not all! And it has definitely been corrupted since it is in no way in its original form it started out as.

The Torah is the result of a long process of editing (or redaction, as it is called by scholars). This means that there is no one date that one can be pointed to as the date of composition. Most scholars think that the final major redactions took place after 539 BCE when Cyrus the Great conquered the Neo-Babylonian Empire.

The books of the Christian Bible were arranged in the sequence one finds them in today to tell the story of the creation of the world by a supreme deity, the fall of man from paradise, and humanity's redemption by the Son of God but these books were not written in that sequence nor would the original authors of the Old Testament works have had that particular story in mind.

..the Hebrew Bible did not begin as a single book; rather, it developed over time through the compilation of many Judean texts. The texts, though, were not always understood as divinely inspired, authoritative, holy texts; the role of Judean texts in religious expression developed between the 6th century BCE and 1st century CE.

Before clearing out your misconceptions, let me remind you that contrary to the Qur'an, you Muslims claim that ALL the bible is CORRUPTED and therefore not to be Trusted.

Clearly, it was killed in self defence.

When next you're in the middle of a lion attack, tell your rescuers to take it easy with him, you might even get a selfie.

MaxInDHouse:
Off point!

When did you also join emotional blackmailers who after running off points begin emotional talks?

Its up to you if you dont want to believe in the creator...

The bottom line is, someone guilty of environmental pollution—not by accident, but by design, has got no moral right or obligation to counsel otherwise. That responsibility should be conferred on those who TRULY believe in environmental sanitation, not a hypocrite.
