"We" don't know if the universe even DID "come into existence".

It's witten by men, written from the perspective of men who are assumed to have been inspired to write.
Not possible. The sun wasn't created until the fourth day.
You seem to speak for Christians and what they believe. Please tell me which churches and which denominations you have attended. I have attended at least 12 different Christian denominations and churches.
You haven't pointed to any scientific reports in the Bible. You've pointed to poetry and metaphor and tried to treat it as science, even though nothing you pointed to is a required belief in Christian creed.
Incorrect. God of the gaps is atheist invention.
Right, you listed off several of the events that go against science and have yet to prove that your God exists and is not just a god of the gaps, or that miracles, which by their very nature, go against science, have ever happened.

There is nothing anywhere in the New Testament indicating these men are writing down dictation from a disembodied voice.

Time is not a static uniform thing. The passage of time depends on the observer's frame of reference.
Thanks for admitting your genealogy only records human history, and makes many assumptions in doing so. It doesn't represent Earth history.

I have never heard anyone talking about a 6000 year old Earth, and even if they did it has nothing to do with core Christian theology, practice, and creed.

The only legitimate points you made are that humans can't survive death or walk on water.
But Christians consider Jesus to be more than human.
Incorrect. God of the gaps is atheist invention.
The God of the gaps argument points to areas where there are no scientific theories and says God lives there. More importantly, they claim as as the gaps close , God will disappear.
This is a convenient little atheist fantasy.
I'm pointing to the known universal mathematical laws of physics, and the known fine tuning of the physical constants, and asking atheists how the rational could be caused by the irrational.
You arrange your life around something you have never seen and never spoken to and there are no videos for people to even deny.
Your erroneous claim is stupid.
I would never be foolish enough to base any religious belief on a video. Videos can be faked.
You just screwed the pooch. It can't be "taken literally" unless it is written in the Bible, as you are discussing, per your context, to be taken either literally or figuratively.
Nope. You have listed miracles, which are miracles, which means they must necessarily violate physics, by definition. You are on tap to list non-miracles that fly in the face of science.
Don't you think you should learn what that is before you invoke it?
Am I one of them?
You haven't even scratched the surface. @Ross Dolan, aka Frank Apisa, is an atheist who denies being an atheist because simply because he fears the stigma. He refers to theists as atheists to make himself feel better.
The fact that Christians literally accepted as true is irrelevant to whether or not it literally appears in the Bible.
Right. There's always some implausible and irrational explanation. Hence the god of the gaps. In the minds of Christians, God can magically transform the atomic structure of water to be able to support an adult male.
You're confusion is not my issue.
Irrelevant.
Irrelevant.
We can make logical inferences based on the scientific information we have for this mathematically rational, lawfully organized universe.
I think you are full of shit. One of us is correct. I say it is moi.
You're the one who claimed video evidence would be key in validating the Jesus story.
Bad analogy. The Norse, Roman, and Greek gods were mythological. The stories about them are mythological.
I'm the only one here who correctly uses and understands scientific theory and universal mathmatical laws. I'm not writing about gaps. I've yet to hear from one atheist how these rational mathmatical principles could just appear by chance from an inanimate and irrational cause.
Rightsl, and for many people that "logical inference" is a sky wizard. Which sky wizard? Well, that's going to almost entirely depend on when you were alive, where you were born and who you were born to.
But something, ain't God, can create something from nothing?
The opinion that the universe is organized is just that... And opinion. I look at the universe and I see complete disorder.
Why do you believe that the story of the Christian, Hindu, Muslim,etc god is any different?
The existence of Jesus doesn't prove the existence of the Christian god any more than the existence of Joseph Smith proves the existence of the Mormon God or Muhammed proves the existence of the Muslim God.
You are. Neither you, me or anyone else knows how the universe came into existence, how far it extends, if it ever ends and what's beyond that point if there is one.
There's no reason to believe the equation you posted is doing anything but explaining the chaos after the fact.
The Avatars of Hinduism are mythological. Not historical. The literary style of the Baghavad Gita is mythology.
You're not even will to say you are convinced and thoroughly believe the cause of the universe and it's rational-lawful organization is because of a purely inanimate physical, non-rational reason.
There is no conceivable chance science will ever explain what came before this universe, why it happened, why it's lawfully organized and mathematically rational.
