With virtually every debate/discussion about events in the Bible that I listen to, I start to lose interest, and just drift away lol. As with so many of the events in the Bible, THEY NEVER TOOK PLACE, THEY DIDNT HAPPEN, AND IF THERE WAS SOME EARLY SEMBLANCE OF TRUTH IN THEM, THEY ARE LONG SINCE DISTORTED AND MEANINGLESS. Why people would argue for and against so many silly stories is beyond me. Lets face it, we are talking about a bunch of ignorant superstitious peasants, still looking at thunderstorms as angry gods, and we are also talking about a tiny propotion of the known world. The rest of the world had its own similar versions of their Gods at the same time. Dead people with the ability to heal? Its as fanciful as most Biblical stories. Please, interesting discussions for sure, but hey, we are talking about fairy tales, asif give any of it any credibility.
