No, the infinite number of hypotheses are not those in the Bible but the infinite variety of claims which could be made and hold as much water as the Bible, to wit, none. There is nothing there to test and if you're going to waste your time testing it you have to give other relegions the same treatment. That would include Sun worshiping, et cetera. You are starting with an absurdity, not a valid hypothesis.

Jesus and the truth in the bible seems difficult and complex for you because of ignorance and darkness. Well, assume there was an intervening God and she were to tell you what I really think. You would discover that I find the Bible neither difficult nor complex. She would tell you that I consider the Bible to be precisely that which it is: a fabrication of man which has achieved a cult following. There isn't any lack of understanding here, it's just that some of us have a far greater respect for what God has created than to fall prey to the desperate fabrications of past cultures. I'm afraid it is you who does not see, Emile, and I hope that someday everybody will have the clarity of thinking which allows me to appreciate the magnitude of the challenge facing mankind in the years ahead. As I said, cultural anachronisms like the Bible will be with us for awhile longer but these fictional placeholders for reality will inevitably be retired, along with Alice in Wonderland, as we learn more about our purpose and place in the universe.
