    Where does it say this in the bible?

    Regarding this question, specifically, we need not limit ourselves to the Bible alone for clarification of the doctrine. Sola Scriptura is a minority position of all Christians alive today.

    What Must Be the Case if Christianity is True?

    That although there were many false virgin birth claims about famous people (like Julius Caesar, Alexander the Great, Plato) mythical heroes (like Mithra, Hercules) and savior gods (like Krishna, Osiris, Dionysus) in the ancient world, Jesus was really born of a virgin.

    That while there is no rational explanation for how a person can be 100% man and 100% God, and although ancient pagan superstitious people believed this can take place (Acts 14:11-12; 28:6), Jesus was incarnate God in the flesh.

    That while the results of science are assured when it comes to chemistry, physics, meteorology, mechanics, forensic science, medical science, rocket science, computer science, and so forth, when it comes to evolutionary science that shows all present life forms have common ancestors, or when science tells us that dead bodies do not arise from the grave because total cell necrosis is irreversible, the results of science are wrong because the Bible says otherwise.

    I don't know what point John is trying to make here...

    Actually, the bibe does imply that ALL life has a common ancestor - All life came from the Earth.

    As for science, I think John needs to remember that Science is NOT a static or dead discipline, it is every changing and evolving and that the science of today was not the sceince of 1000 years ago and onw wonders what the sceince of 3010 will be.

    That although there is no rational explanation for why Jesus had to die on the cross to atone for our sins, his death atoned for our sins.
