Your credulity is barely matched by the idiocy you display...

"The Tel Dan Stela. In 1993 and 1994, fragments of a stela (inscribed stone) were found at Tel Dan in northern Israel. The stela contained an inscription with references to “Israel” and “the House of David.” Prior to this discovery, critics had disputed whether the biblical King David actually existed.

I quote from Wikepedia, but I am sure Arakish will school you further as he has the advantage and has actually viewed these Stele.... "In the second half of the 9th century BCE (the most widely accepted date for the stele) the kingdom of Aram, under its ruler Hazael, was a major power in the Levant. Dan, just 70 miles from Hazael's capital of Damascus, would almost certainly have come under its sway. This is borne out by the archaeological evidence: Israelite remains do not appear until the 8th century BCE, and it appears that Dan was already in the orbit of Damascus even before Hazael became king in c. 843 BCE.

The author of the inscription mentions conflict with the kings of Israel and the 'House of David'. The names of the two enemy kings are only partially legible. Biran and Naveh reconstructed them as Joram, son of Ahab, King of Israel, and Ahaziah, son of Joram of the House of David. Scholars seem to be evenly divided on these identifications. It is dependent on a particular arrangement of the fragments, and not all scholars agree on this.

In the reconstructed text, the author tells how Israel had invaded his country in his father's day, and how the god Hadad then made him king and marched with him against Israel. The author then reports that he defeated seventy kings with thousands of chariots and horses. In the very last line there is a suggestion of a siege, possibly of Samaria, the capital of the kings of Israel. This reading is, however, disputed.

" The Pilate Stone. Many critics dismissed Pontius Pilate as a mythical figure. But in 1961, a block of limestone was discovered in Caesarea, with an inscription that contained the name “Pontius Pilatus” and referred to him as the prefect of Judaea, confirming the biblical record. (my bold)

No, that Pontius Pilate was the prefect or governor of Judaea as documented in several places outside the bible is NOT proof of the biblical account. It's further proof that a Pontius Pilate existed and was an official of the Roman government...that is all.

The authenticity of Acts. Sir William Ramsay was convinced that the book of Acts was a hoax, as it contained many details that had no independent verification. He lived 15 March 1851 – 20 April 1939

This is a fallacious appeal to authority and can be disregarded as any sort of evidence. The Luke of the bible is anonymous, we don't know who he was, the earliest versions of Acts date to the 5th Century CE, although the lost originals are somewhat optimistically dated originally to the turn of the 2cnd Century CE. The descriptions of "paul" (also anonymous) in Acts do not marry up with the Epistles. So nonsense , no evidence from you at all.

So JimM. you you have shown no evidence of your own independent thought, relied on plain lies (lets be kind "inaccuracies") to support your forlorn dream and demonstrated that you have no clue as to what constitutes evidence.

Go and study , steer clear of these christian apologists and have a look at actual modern 21st CE archeology. You will be surprised at what you find, and even more surprised at what you don't.
