There's no more evidence for the Christian God than there is for any other God mentioned in any writing by man, which is to say there's poor evidence, hence "faith".

Like I said, surely you don't expect anyone to believe your claim that biochemistry isn't a word based solely on you saying it's not a word. So, if you are not a troll, you will be able to support your claim that biochemistry isn't a word.
If you are just a troll, you will continue your troll games.
My money is on the latter.

You can't make any evidence just disappear.

If it can be shown to be authentic, that would definitely lock down the historicity of the Biblical Jesus because we know that there was only one Yeshua and only one Ya'akov ever, and that those were simply not common names.

Of course "biochemistry" is a word. Strange people make up words all the time and look, you used it your post, so it is definitely a word.
On the other hand, it doesn't mean "organic chemistry" as you would like it to.

Too funny! You should have just written "I forfeit"; it would have been much easier.
You actually have to have the kind of rational mind that can think like a historian, an archeologist, or scientist.
Jesus shared four brothers with James. Assuming the inscription is legitimate, it would be unexpected and highly unusual for the ossuary to only name one of James's brothers out of the four he had - unless his brother Jesus was so noteworthy and widely known as to merit being singled out of the siblings to be inscribed on the bone box.
Combining that fact, with the first century provenance of the ossuary and the father named Joseph, and you have yourself pretty strong circumstantial evidence. Again, assuming the inscription is legit.

So now you're claiming @ZenMode is actually agnostic because he cannot 100% rule out the possibility that a lawfully organized universe was created by some kind of rational agency or rational entity.

I don't consider myself to be agnostic. A gnostic, to me, is being Sweden. You are claiming to be completely indifferent, not leaning either way and having no opinion. I definitely consider myself to be atheist, especially as it relates to all of the gods that man has made up over time.

cypress = retarded cunt.
So you believe nothing is real but matter and energy, and that a mathematically rational, lawfully organized, and finely tuned universe popped into existence by random chance from irrational material causes.
That truly is miraculous.
Nothing in my experience of nature convinces me that the rational can come from the irrational and that something can come from nothing.

gnostic is something different than agnostic. just so you know.

nature is also rational.
morality is rational.
you just like madness because you're a demonic war fiend.
If nothing is real but matter and energy, then your claim is impossible. Quarks, electrons, and photons are not rational and they do not possess rationality.
Rationality means clear thought based on reason, intelligence, and logic.
