If, time after time, archaeology substantiates statements the Bible makes about the past, it would be logical to conclude that because the Bible is reliable historically, it must be reliable when it speaks of salvation, the coming of Christ, the Judgment, and everlasting life.

Wow. That's a HUGH leap!
Historical accuracy does not automatically validate magical claims.

Ya’ll go ahead and put me in the “nuts” category then. I’m fine with that. I’m not afraid of taking God at His word, nor do I need historical accuracy of this or that to validate what I’ve experienced personally. It’s validated to me in me. I know this God and I recognize His voice.

Why not? Obviously it was written in truth since the evidence shows that...so it is perfectly logical that the prinicples also are truth. Besides the fact that they work in our lives! forgive and you will be forgiven...judge and you will be judged...perfect evidence...judge and you will feel self judgement, works everytime! Whether or not we recognize that unhappiness and depression as judgement.

Marvel Comics’ “Secret Wars” mini-series in the 1980’s accurately portrayed that time period, so it would be logical to conclude the Beyonder is the most powerful force in the universe, and that Spider-Man is the most heroic of all.
