[quote=@Wade Wilson] we know these things happen because there is physical evidence - pyramids, crumbling greek arenas, etcetera but how the fuck are you supposed to get physical evidence of a snake forcing a woman to bite into an apple? i'm just saying there are some times where you can't go "i believe that this didn't happen, therefore it didn't happen". [/quote] You cant prove a negative, thats not how claims about reality work. And yes there is physical evidence to prove the age of the earth, Radiometric Dating, Geology and even astrology to name a few. If I said that I was visited by an anime unicorn, I would need to prove it. But based on what we understand about reality, we would reliably be able to say that I was lying and that my claim was false. That is the same standard we hold the biblical claims to. The earth isnt 6000 years old, and snakes dont fucking talk. These are facts proven with physical evidence. If you want to infer that some sort of magic took places to bend the laws of reality, then you will have to demonstate how this magic works for the claim to be taken seriously as even a possibility.
