SHOULD THE BIBLE BE CONSIDERED VALID HISTORIC EVIDENCE?

OFTEN PEOPLE TRY TO VALIDATE THEIR ARGUMENT BY QUOTING FROM THE BIBLE AS BEING ACCURATE VALID HISTORICAL INFORMATION. IS THE BIBLE FACT, OR IS IT AN UNRELIABLE SOURCE OF INFORMATION?

For any document to be treated as a valid peice of evidence, it is necessary to be presented in original ( not copies ) and there should be someone who declares that "is fully aware of the circumstances of the evidence "or something to that effect. It should be presented in the court for examination and cross examination by a person who has either authored it or handled it during the course of his normal business.

But yes, when people claim to have done something in pursuit of their religious beliefs, they can quote from the bible to explain the circumstance of their doing something or not doing something, but that is only an explanation, and not necessarily acceptable as legal sanction for whatever act is committed and being adjudicated upon.
