-Chloe We couldn't directly prove it to you because none of the people who were alive when that happened are alive now, but the thing is, the stuff in the Bible that we can prove has been proved. Ok, so you know how the Bible was written by several authors? They all say they were inspired by God. They lived over a large time frame, and they all paint the same picture of God. You would think if they were making this up they would accidentally slip up here or there. But they don't. They're all talking about the same God. Also, why would they all lie about something like this? That'd be such a huge waste of time. They'd be the biggest idiots ever. Like the prophets in the Old Testament who were constantly preaching to the Israelites to repent. Or Paul. I don't know if you've heard of him, but he's a man in the New Testament part of the Bible who persecuted the Christians. He hated them. But then one day when he's going to Damascus to persecute Christians more, he falls off his horse, sees a bright light, hears God talking to him, and has a change of heart. Paul was a real guy. Either he was crazy or God is real.

Anyway, I might not be able to proof to you that God wrote the ten commandments, but neither can we say that it if false. Also, look at the trustworthiness of the Bible in general. The history is accurate with what we know, so how do we distinguish what is true or not? How do we know that the whole thing isn't true?

NinjaTeddyBear In certain perspectives, you're effectively saying that Shannon Messenger "a biggest idiot ever". People believe books if they're uneducated and dreams and hallucinations are often based on reality as in things that you've read or heard of or seen. I've had dreams about the Keeper characters, and people could take those as godly commandments. I, personally, like to think of the Bible as a story and fanfictions. There are good fanfiction authors who research the book to make sure that they get every detail correct. Possibly, this is how the Bible accumulated.

Then again, this is my opinion and I am not trying to make anyone else believe this.
