Twitter response 4: Bible found on the moon, photos from 2000 years ago, predictions — absurd demands

Do Extraordinary Claims Require Extraordinary Evidence? Nah. 00:20:35 – 00:22:07

Fourth respondent's example of extraordinary evidence — illustrating how the slogan leads to unreasonable expectations.

Respondent demanded: a Bible found on the moon, photographs from 2,000 years ago, plus fulfilled predictions to verify authenticity. Mike: (1) no historical investigation expects events documented on the moon; (2) there were no photographs in the 1st century — expecting them is anachronistic; (3) for predictions, Mike notes we do have prophetic predictions in Scripture that were fulfilled at a later time and place, which he covers in his "Evidence for the Bible" series.
