Is there any proof of anything in the bible?

Certainly. Most of it is history that has been recorded elsewhere, just told from a number of perspectives.\n\nIt deals with people known to have existed and things that they are known to have done.\n\nHowever none of the supernatural occurrences have been supported except one. That is the destruction of the Tower of Babel. There is a ruin that fits some of that story in that its destruction shows evidence of the release of a great deal of power of some kind. In Iraq if Saddam didn't tear it apart.

Looks like you answered it yourself. However, my personal opinion is that I really don't care what it says, because I don't believe in it anyway.\n\nThe bible is all I need.

Please provide your proof that there is a God.\nPlease provide proof in the form of documented fact. And the Bible doesn't count, it has been misinterpreted so often, that it is a joke. If you want to use it as documented "fact", provide documentation that it is actually the word of "god"

I do completely. The bible is an incredible work of antiquity. Never ever has the bible been proven wrong. There are countless events/places from the bible that archaeologists have found including;\nUr-the city where Abraham lived for awhile\nNebucenezzar-king of Persia-now Iraq\nTomb of Ciaphus-high priest who brought Jesus to trial\nWalls of Jericho found\nKing David's bathes\n\nAnd SO much more.\nThere were eye witnesses for the events in the bible. Many who had everything to loose by claiming the Jesus was messiah.\nThere is non christian evidence that the man Jesus WAS here many wrote of him including Tacitus who was a Roman historian  , Josephus who was a Jewish historian, Pliney the Younger who was the imperial legate of the Roman province of Bithynia. He wrote to the Emperor many times about the followers of Jesus and Christians . Many atheists know the man Jesus was here because of these writings. \n\nEvidence of the massive flood: In the 1920s, Sir Charles Woolley, a British archaeologist, while working at Tell al-Muqayyar, in the area of Ur in Mesopotamia, made a startling discovery. He had been digging vertical shafts deep into the soil in the ancient city. As expected, he found layer after layer of evidence of human life - the remnants of graves, pottery, and rubble. But suddenly, it all stopped at a layer of pure clay that was approximately 10 feet thick. Such an abrupt and deep layer of clay, far above the ancient level of the nearby Euphrates river, was very unusual. It indicated a massive flood.\n\nWoolley's workmen kept digging through the layer of sedimentary (i.e. water borne) clay, that had no evidence of human habitation, until it ended as abruptly as it started and they again found deposits of graves, pottery, rubble - but which were nothing at all like that found above the layer of water-deposited clay. The clay layer marked the boundary between two very different worlds, two very different civilizations, that Woolley declared were the before and after worlds of the flood. Woolley's findings made headline news in Britain and the United States at the time.\n\nPossible evidence of Noah's ark on a mountain in Turkey;\nThe mountains of Ararat are located between the Black and Caspian Seas in southern Armenia. Although "Mount Ararat" has become popularly used for where Noah's ark came to rest, as The Bible account states, Ararat was actually a mountain range. Two peaks, about 7 miles / 11 kilometers apart, have been identified as the most likely location of the ark's resting place. The one is 14,300 feet and the other 10,300 feet above the adjacent Araxes plain. The higher of the two has a snow-covered peak year round (which would also leave any remnant of Noah's ark mostly hidden under a cover of snow and ice), and was known to the ancient Persians (who were neither Jews nor Christians) as "Noah's mountain."For generations, the people of the Armenian village of Bayzit, located at the foot of Mount Ararat, have told of how a mountain shepherd found a large wooden ship high up on the mountain.\n\nIn 1833, a Turkish summer expedition reported finding the wooden prow of a large ship sticking out of the south glacier (if the wood of Noah's Ark did survive all of that time, along with it having been coated in tar, or "pitch," by Noah himself, being frozen in the mountaintop ice would have preserved the wood - although a glacier has its own destructive forces as it actually moves, along with everything on, and in, it).\n\nIn an expedition in 1892, Dr. Nouri, the Archdeacon of Jerusalem and Babylon, claimed to have seen the wreckage of a large ship partially visible in the mountain ice. He said "The interior was full of snow, the outer wall was of a dark red color."\n\nDuring the First World War, a Russian flying officer named Roskowitzki claimed to have seen the "wreckage of a fair sized ship" on the south side of Mount Ararat.\n

well He is real and the Bible is proof. People throughout history are proof.\nI agree stop saying He isn't real. Because He is.

Depending on how you interpret it, yes, the Bible can prove itself wrong, just as much as it can prove itself right.\n\nNo, the Bible didn't say don't believe anything I say. \n\nNo, you don't have to take every word of the Bible literally. So you don't have to be uptight about a "self-centered" God (as you interpreted it rather unjustly), nor to try to be like God in perfection (otherwise, you don't really need the Bible).\n\nThere's no point to asking your question if nothing exists in this world. I suggest you don't get stuck with that notion in your head. THIS WORLD IS FOR YOU TO LIVE IN. NOT FOR HEAVEN NOR FOR HELL, BUT FOR THE LOVE OF GOD THAT IS IN YOU ALL ALONG. \n\nYou found God that was staring at Satan in the face because that was the god you were looking for, thanks to hardboiled, religious fanatics out there who are just as stuck up as their religious/non-religious counterparts. Keep searching. Peace.

None that has been proven.

Well, since the Bible is referenced in historical texts, more than any other book, and the story of Jesus is told in the Bible, I think that is considered historical proof. These stories are not new. The concept of Jesus' existance is harder for the modern day person to believe because we are 2000 years removed from that time. However, several texts, scrolls, letters, etc. were written soon after the death and resurection of Christ. Also, do not forget that zealous Jewish priests were persecuting Christians in order to try and get them to deny the message of Christ. This went on for a long time, and yet, the message has survived until now...2000 years later. Is it possible that it is all made up? I suppose there is no 100% evidence that it existed. But then, can you 100% proove that your great (time 5) grandfather existed? If you never met him and no one alive on this earth ever met him, how can you "proove" he existed. The simple fact is, you can't. But you believe because 1) you have faith. and 2) all the evidence presented supports that he did exist. All the evidence supports the existance of Christ. \n\nI suggest you pick up a copy of the book "The Case for Christ" by Lee Stroble. This presents the stories in a very "judicial" method. Giving the evidence and the opposing sides views and why the evidence supports the message of Christ.

Do You want evidence?\n\nOr a simple answer?\n\nEphesians 4:5

There is no "proof" of God. Do you know the definition of FAITH?

More proof that the Bible is contradictory.

Cue the snarky reply, "Can you prove he doesn't?" \n\nIn 5, 4, 3, 2....\n\nI'd sure like to see proof if there is any. But proof to me and proof to the religious is two entirely different things. Some would have us believe that bananas are proof.

Nobody can really know how to tell if God exists. It's all a matter of faith. That's what most religions are based on: faith in (a) supreme being(s). The Bible isn't much PROOF, but it does help to strengthen the bonds between God and His people. \n\nAnd no, the Bible is not straight from God. He may have spoken to his people, but he spoke through prophets (special messengers). Many (real) historical figures and prophets have written down their experiences with God in the Bible. Remember, the Bible was written hundreds (perhaps thousands) of years after these evens were said to have occured. Many of the stories in the Bible began as that--stories told from person to person through the oral tradition. \n\nAs far as proof goes, many of the historical facts (such as the dates of battles and kings of nearby kingdoms) have been found true. Names of Assyrian kings have been preserved. Do you remember reading about King Xerxes or the great Phoenician State of Tyre? These things have been proven to have existed at some point, only reinforcing the fact that there IS truth in the Bible. Whether or not you want to believe everything in it literally is up to you.

Nothing from the bible has been proven except obvious things (the sun rose that morning lol). There's much better explanations for nature and the workings of the universe than the bible has ever given. EVIDENCE and FACTS point towards things VERY different than those written in the bible. It's vastly outdated and filled with lies and things we should long have forgotten.

There is a huge amount of evidence proving that the god of Abraham, and the bible, as it's written, is nonsense.\n\nIf you don't know about this evidence, or choose to ignore it, or try to fit it back into the mold of your bible, then I can't help you.  You just need a reality check.\n\nIs there proof that there is no God of any kind?  No.  There is also no proof that there is no Santa Claus.  I don't believe in him, either.  But regardless, god or not, none of us atheists would have a problem with you believing in him, as long as you didn't profess to KNOW what God wants and/or commands, and then try to push your nonsense on the rest of us by passing laws and electing officials who are equally deranged.\n\nIf you would get out of our lives, we could care less what sort of hocus pocus you practice.  But since you won't get out of our lives, that's why we come after you, to try to educate you.  And trust me, we don't want to, brother... And we shouldn't have to.  Unfortunately, it's our burden for right now.
