  1. Actually Rome did eventually divided into 10 kingdoms. And the for countries listed not only rose and fell in that successive order, they were the most important empires of history at that time. Also it would be fitting that Rome was the last, since that is when Jesus was born. It wasn't until late that it divided. I don't mean that offensively, I just like to discuss things.
  2. I was just wondering how to scientifically explain the prophesies in Daniel. They describe in detail the rise and fall of Babylon, Meado Persia, Greece (Alexander the Great), and Rome. Right now I'm talking about the old prophesies not the ones that haven't happened yet. We know this was written before the events happened because of old texts that state Alexander the Great visited Jerusalem. Thease texts (which are agreed upon to be cretable) state that he read the prophesies (which had to have been written before he got there) and thought he was the one fulfilling them. (Which he was.) Here is one of the prophesies for people who haven't heard them. (Not word for word.) Daniel said he saw a humongous statue with a head of Gold, chest and arms of silver, legs of bronze, and feet of iron mixed with clay. Interpretation: The head of Gold is Babylon, wealthy but not very strong. The chest and arms are Meado-Persia, which split into two parts (Two arms) but are less valuable (but more strong) than Babylon. The Legs is Greece, stronger than Meado-Persia but less wealthy. And last is Rome, the strongest but the least wealthy (but the most grusem...). Is was partially strong and partially weak. (Iron and clay) It also (eventually) split into ten parts (ten toes). Hope this proves interesting. If you want to read more this can be found on any free bible app. (Daniel 2)
  3. The gospels are not fiction. Those people thout the God himself wrote them! (Pun intended) They carefully copied them word for word and sent them to the different churches. All of the Gospel accounts we have are the same. So they didn't evolve overtime. Roman records showed his disciples all (except for John) died horrific deaths for claims about Jesus. I don't know anout you, but I wouldn't be crucified upsidown for something I didn't believe. And they didn't do it for fame either. They were less than famos back then, they were regarded as lunatics.
