You guys will believe historians who write history books even though you were not present. The Bible is written proof. One you believe. One you don't. Your choice.
History books are based on facts which can be corroborated independently. Virtually all of the New Testament and most of the Old Testament describe instances and events which cannot be corroborated independently.

Fixed that and I agree in the black bits.

Contemporary history does not make claims the bible does. There is a huge appeal to magic in the bible as there are huge appeals to magic in other religions and myths.
And the Father had previously set no age limit to life.
I've heard that where somewhere before, hum, but the simple fact that the physical world we call the universe had a beginning, then this world and all things therein must have a finite nature. And by simple observation one can see the finite life process which has a beginning and end.. The eternal nature of the Creator neither has a beginning nor an end.
Now I remember, that is what is written in the Bible that the serpent said to Adam in the first days of mankind on earth.

Do the waves not water the dust in the expanse that they might shine in his Light.
Did not the cherubim's spread their wings and fly upon the winds of light that pulsate from the flaming sword that turns every which way?
Does the light of day not rise in the east and set in the west from the beginning?

So if the book is your guide, then why did the prophet say said that man shall not live by bread alone but by ever word that is spoken from the mouth of God?

Truth? The bible is not the truth and it is certainly not history.
The Bible is an endless well of truth and valid historical document.
Your claim is disproven in the first chapter of the first book. The Earth was NOT formed before the Sun, like your ancient text claims. We know that to be a fact.

The first lie recorded in the Bible is the biggest one of all, and it is found in Genesis, the third chapter, fourth verse:
“And the serpent said unto the woman, ye shall not surely die.”
How about this lie? If your beliefs were true that Adam and Eve were the first humans and actually did eat that forbidden fruit, I guess humans would have ended right there and then....
“But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.” (Genesis 2:17)

Evidence from archaeological, geological, chemical, astronomical, biological and other sciences show this to be a fantasy. All the Bible it is, is a collection of mythical stories.
