    All I can say is that you need to wipe the egg off your face for foolishly spiking the ball in the end zone in your OP because you were too uninformed to know that it was confirmed by physical evidence half a century ago, Pointius Pillate was the Roman Prefect of Judea when Jesus of Nazareth lived.
    Atheist who claim he wasn’t a real figure are ignorant of history as well.

    That stone was mentioned in the article I posted. Did you even read it? Either way, it doesn't change the fact that archaeology has always confirmed Scripture. And it doesn't change the fact that atheists have used a lack of historical documents to claim that the Bible is a myth. No one has ever proven the Bible to be wrong about anything. That's because it is the inspired word of God.

    The only thing archeology has proven is Pilate was a historical figure. It has not shown proof of Jesus Christ life, death or resurrection, sorry.

    A fair statement, though I have never met anyone who claimed Pontius Pillatte never existed. But, that does not rule out there are some out there.

    Archeology is only one line of evidence supporting the existence of historical figures. As far as modern scholarship is aware, we do not have single word written by Socrates, or a shed of archeological evidence of his life. But we can be confident the man named Socrates lived in 5th century Athens based on witness testimony, Plato's dialouges, and written record.

    As far as I am aware, the Romans were pretty good at keeping records, and the written documentation of the Roman Empire is profuse. So there may be sufficient evidence prove the existence of many prominent Romans, even absent hard, physical archeological evidence of their life.

    I gotta stand WITH you on that, Grugore. You are absolutely correct.

    The Bible says there was a Rome...and sure enough...there was a Rome. We can document that.

    The Bible says a Pharaoh ruled over a place called Egypt...and sure enough, there was a place called Egypt...and it was ruled by a Pharaoh.


    Those crazies who deny that are nuts.

    You know Ben Carson claimed Joseph built the pyramids to store grain.... and then there are claims that the Jews were slaves in Egypt and built the pyramids. Never mind that archaeology proves that to be a lie.

    It would be a waste of my time to construct a reasoned response to this stupidity.

    It has proven that he was governor in Israel, or wherever it was, when Jesus stood trial. It does not, in any way, contradict Scripture. In fact, I challenge you to show one example of archaeology contradicting Scripture. Just one. You cant.

    Once again, faith relies upon circular logic.

    Nothing can ever contradict anything you've ever posted. We're all very committed to proving negatives for you.

    LOLOL.. There are so many anachronisms in the Bible.. They refer to places that didn't exist or like Sodom and Gommorah which were destroyed a thousand years before Abraham and Lot.
