Science has, on many, many occasions served to shut down certain critics of religion and religious history. In particular, the Old Testament of the Christian Bible (based on the Jewish Torah) and the New Testament have been the target of naysayers, atheists, and Leftist revisionist historians for centuries. With the advent of modern technology and scientific theory and exploration, archaeological excavation has uncovered corroborating evidence time and time again that clarified and verified long-held assertions by Jews and Christians that the books of the Bibles (both Jewish and Christian) are accurate and true histories of what has already occurred in ages past.
If you’re like me, you enjoy a good documentary. There are literally thousands out there on any given subject. Some of the really enjoyable ones are those that take no particular biased opinion, but work from the standpoint of a person simply trying to discover truth. I used to be a fan of the History Channel until I actually began to research subject matter myself. Then, the ugly truth emerged and that was that the History Channel, A&E, Discovery, National Geographic, etc., etc., were all on the same page as far as developing a storyline and delivering the finished product. Number one, it has to be marketable. Can’t make money without someone wanting to watch it and without advertisers interested in sponsoring that show. Number two, it has to be controversial or provocative. For obvious reasons, you don’t want a real draw-out boring program (see Number one above). And Number three, it has to have a slight, extreme or radical Leftist slant. This is key in the packaging of these shows because of the types of people involved in the production, the actors who bring the stories to life, and the sponsors who follow trends based on social media and sales statistics.
For this reason, I completely avoid all the Liberal trappings of the documentaries which pretend to be about “exposing the truth” about history, particularly when it comes to anything that happens to be sacred to Christians or is deeply ensconced in identity politics or racial inequality. If you’ve ever gone on Netflix to watch a documentary about, say, the Book of Genesis, you’d be sadly mistaken to believe that this will be an in-depth study of the Book of Genesis. Rather (as becomes quickly apparent during your viewing of the show) the program is out to disprove the Book of Genesis in one way or another. They usually approach the subject matter from several different angles, all exposing the “lies or half-truths of the men who wrote the Book.” And this is a pattern with practically 100% of the so-called documentaries. The information is there to test your faith, to see if you’re actually paying attention to scripture and not to the flashy, state-of-the-art computer graphic renderings of the construction of Solomon’s Temple or the Exodus from Egypt.
Once again, science has come to the rescue and facts bear out more evidence that the Bible should be taken at its literal word rather than in mystical metaphors and allegory. Read on the following page about the amazing new DNA evidence direct from Egypt that will shut the mouths of condescending Liberals…at least temporarily. An extraordinary finding!
Amazing just how many haven’t read the Old Testament, nor even heard of it. The New has been revised greatly, as a political expedient. History is in the Old Testament.
I’ve been reading through these comments for quite some time. There is so much anger and debate between many of you. I was raised to be a Christian and have since gone down my own path. I choose to just be a good person who makes many mistakes in life. It’s so sad to see so much hate over religious beliefs that should be promoting love and peace. Just my two cents.
Quick question Bill Lowery, what if no one ever told you there was a God or bible? I mean honestly God has never spoken to me and I would know nothing of religion had I not been raised Catholic but then I find out there are other religions that are different from the one I was raised in , so if they all worship different gods who’s to say which one is true or are we to believe they’re all the same just different names???
Bill Lowery and what is Gods word? The Bible? Written by man…..,.
My life is all the proof I need.I know what I know.
The Bible, God’s word, doesn’t have to be proven correct! It is the infallible, inerrant, Word of God!
FAITH…..That’s it….FAITH

Gentry Yeatman what do you think of this? Since is your field..is it plausible?
I agree with you sir. God is real . Heaven is real and hell is hot. Jesus is the truth the life and the way. And the only way to get to God the Father is thru God the Son thru the power of God the Holy Spirit.
