01 Aug New Discovery Could Be Proof That A Passage From The Bible Actually Happened

The events depicted in religious texts are frequently the subject of debates by historians and theologians, especially in the last few hundred years. Some historical events that feature in these texts have been proven by science to have been false over the years.

This isn’t necessarily a deterrent for believers, as an increasing number of religious people don’t take every passage literally, preferring to view them as representative of a meaningful truth. But we all, believers and non-believers, can get a little curious about exactly how much fact has made it into these books.

The primary difficulty that emerges from this quest for the truth is that most of the events covered by religious texts such as the Bible or the Quran are said to have occured over a thousand years ago.
