Well, I dont like to get into discussions on this topic, since they have a tendency to become, drawn-out, circular, and largely unfruitful.

But if you're one who likes reading, you might do well to invest a some time, and a few bucks, in a book called "The Case For Christ" by Lee Strobel.

The author was a former skeptic/atheist who became a believer.
He deals with some of the toughest questions critics often ask, dealing with a variety of questions relating to the Bible, history, archaelogy, science, etc. I think he handles the questions very well showing how the available evidence strongly supports the veracity of the bible and its message regarding Christ and his resurrection. I've been recommending the book to others for years now. I think its the kind of book that both Christians and non Christians might find to be quite eye-opening, and an overall good read.

Used copies are usually available online for $3-4 plus shipping,
More info is at this link: http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listi...7/ref=dp_olp_1

Hope that's helpful somewhat.

(Have you prayed to God about this, by the way? Just wondering.)

I think we have that book. I have read The Case for Faith, and found it a somewhat better at answering the usual questions than the usual pat answers, but still not quite satisfying.

And yes, I have prayed about this, a lot.
