Aaron Ra's claim: snakes and donkeys cannot talk — Mike's rebuttal

Refuting Atheist Video: Bible Has ZERO Fulfilled Prophecy 00:05:39 – 00:07:13

Ra claims the Bible is factually wrong because snakes and donkeys cannot talk, citing Genesis 3 and Numbers 22

Mike responds that skeptics characterize these events as if animals routinely talk throughout the Bible like a Jim Henson movie, but in reality only one snake speaks one time (Genesis 3, with a spiritual entity involved — likely Satan) and one donkey speaks one time (Numbers 22:28) when God supernaturally opens its mouth. These are singular miraculous events, not claims that animals normally speak. The exaggeration of what the text actually says undermines the criticism.
