    Do you believe George Washington existed? How do you know? Were you there? He could have been an invention of unscrupulous history revisionists, an elaborate hoax.

    I know that sounds absurd, but you have to have faith that he existed. There is no rock solid proof.

    FAIL

    We have plenty of evidence that Washington lived. Birth certificates, portraits, deeds. He was one of the presidents too wasn't he? That's not faith at all. Totally different ball park.

    Portraits? Like, polaroids?
    Oh, so you have a bunch of old documents and first hand eye witness historical accounts and testimonies to the fact that Washington existed, do you? That's the 'PASS' proof is it?

    I know I took it to the extreme, but you get the point. I mean how do you know his birth certificate is real. How do you know the portraits are really of George Washington? Yes, he was a President.

    Jesus never even had a home of his own.

    The more archaeological evidence that is uncovered the more the bible is supported.

    Not so much, apparently there are Dead Sea Scrolls yet to be released that throw serious doubts on the whole religion that is Christianity

    Care to elaborate?

    By the way, relatively recent archaeological evidence has confirmed as historical many of the people, places and events in the bible that some thought to be incorrect.
