Anyone care to help me out with an essay?

I completely believe in "unidentified flying objects." I've seen many objects that were unidentified to me... and they were definitely flying . Sorry, that's all I have on that subject. Who's up for a Bigfoot conversation?

Just kidding, Stefan .

Even if that's all you have to say, you still have a point there. They would indeed be called ufos. Whether or not the observer would believe that they are aliens or a sign from a deity, is a different matter.

Dammit, Rick.

Was she covered in fur and did she communicate through grunts? Are all videos of her out of focus?

I never put much stock in what teachers claim, especially when it's a matter of hearsay even when they repeat it. I prefer doublechecking everything they say.

The only "evidence" of somebody called Jesus from that area is in fact a few mentions written down as hearsay several decades to several centuries after his alleged resurrection. There are photos of Elvis stone dead in the morgue and people still think he's still alive. His life and death are well documented, but there are still some pretty fantastic stories going around regarding his supposed fate. There's a reason why anecdotal evidence isn't considered reliable.

Seriously, apart from the obviously unprovable parts of the bible, there are numerous factual errors, including historical ones. The quickest way to find them, is to surf the net and look up sites that are critical of the claims made in the bible. I really don't like mocking people's faiths, but the fact of the matter is that the bible doesn't contain much history (if any).

I too have carried my share of caskets these last few years (my own grandmother's just over a year ago), but I'm no closer to having faith.

I am not offended, nor trying to offend anyone. However, the sights you mentioned, (and yes, I've done lots of reading last night & today), have no facts or proof that the Bible is wrong either. They are as much heresay and speculation as my 8th grade teacher's story. So, since you mentioned websites, I thought I would too, such as About the Bible - Christian Answers® WebBible™ and www.geocities.com/worldview_/science.html you may be suprised. The only reason I brought it up in the first place was as a reference for afterlife for Red-sided's essay. Yes, I believe in it, but it was not my intention to cram my faith down anyone's unwilling throat! I truely hope I have not offended anybody!
OH, and Bless you Kitkat!

To prove the bible wrong isn't necessary, you need to prove that it is right. Until it has been proven to be right, there's absolutely no logical reason to assume that it is. In fact, it's a logical fallacy to do so.

Your second link says: "Sorry, the page you requested was not found."

Sorry the correct site is Science Facts Confirm the Bible there is an underscore after worldview that you can't see and then the number 3.
Also, if it can't be proven wrong in over 2000 years, then I can't see how it is a fallacy to believe it. And I don't believe in unicorns or fairies, but I do believe its possible for there to be life on other planets. I believe in ghosts and you can make fun of me all you like, because I believe you can choose to believe in, or not believe in whatever you choose.

I believe you can choose to believe in, or not believe in whatever you choose.

I couldn't agree more. Belief is a very personal thing, and requires no proof.
