Lol these ppl sef! Desperate to give scientific credibility to biblical stories. Anyway it could be Jonah was kidnapped in a submarine by entities from an advanced civilization. Since my guy never see submarine b4, his best description was a whale.

What I know is God is powerful and also a miracle working God

POWERFUL ENOUGH TO DO WHAT EXACTLY?

BLIND SHEEP. WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THE INACCURACY OF THIS STORY YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT MIRACLES AND POWERS.

1. JONAH IS SWALLOWED AND VOMITED AFTER 3 DAYS IN NINEVEH.
2. CHRISTIAN RESEARCHER CLAIMS TO SEE EVIDENCE FOR THIS IN JERUSALEM (ANOTHER DIFFERENT VILLAGE cheesy)
3. HIS FELLOW CHRISTIAN RESEARCHERS CLAIM HIS STORY IS MOST LIKELY FALSE BECAUSE OF INCONSISTENCIES.

BUT NIGERIANS ARE JUBILATING AND PARTYING THAT THEIR GOD IS POWERFUL AND MIRACULOUS. WHERE ARE YOUR BRAINS FOR GOATS SAKE?? undecided

Though I'm not impressed with the 'discovery' (as the carvings don't really shiw that it happened, but shows that it was believed it happened), I am amazed at how 'smart' folks who feels they know so much are throwing punches to religion.

It'll be great if you have a good knowledge of what you want to criticize before criticizing it. Most haven't studied the Bible by themselves to understand it but just swallow what skeptics dish out without even checking if those arguments have been refuted completely

A wall painting is the supposed evidence? How is that different from the story in the Bible?
To keep being in religion, just forget about evidence otherwise you start questioning everything. I've been there.
No specie of fish exists or existed that could swallow a whole person whole. Let's even say it happened and an alien blue whale swallowed Jonah, he would not have survived past 10 minutes without oxygen.
The way the mouth of whales (the world's largest sea creatures) is designed, swallowing an adult person is pratically impossible.

Is anything too difficult for God to do??

Blessed are those who have not seen but yet believe. We do not even need all these to believe that wonderful miracle of the Almighty Creator, JEHOVAH. The fact that our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, alluded to it in his preaching is more than enough evidence of the reality of that auspicious incident.

Some actually read the Bible. However, they do, not to know the truth but to actually criticise. The enemy gives them what they want, then they think they're right and continue to wallow in their ignorance.

No. The tombstone pictures are a decorative distraction...they date from 800 years after the supposed Jonah incident, and are not relevant to the article. The evidence is an anecdote about an incident that supposedly took place near the Falkland Islands in the 1800's. A man was said to have been swallowed by a whale, and taken out alive, two days later. The anecdote is being used as evidence that it is possible that the Jonah story could be literally true. But the Falkland Island story is at least partially untrue, at least as to the identity of the ship involved.
Yeah, could be possible a fish swallowed and vomited someone, but the Jews did some twisting.

Prayers are not some sort of magic spells that you can just chant and then everything you wish for will be granted. God is a being with a mind, and a will.

But since your god has a plan and knows your heart, why do you pray? undecided

JESUS AND SOLOMON, THE TWO WISEST PEOPLE IN THE ENTIRE BOOK, AS WELL AS HUNDREDS OF PRIESTS AND PHYSICIANS COULDN'T COME WITH ANYTHING, NOT EVEN PENICILLIN OR ANYTHING THAT IS OF USE TO THE WORLD TODAY.

LOOK AT BOOKS BY MAYANS AND EGYPTIANS AND EARLY AFRIKAANS... THERE WERE MANUALS AND PRACTICALS FOR ASTRONOMY, COUNTING, MEDICINE, AND MANY MORE. ALL FROM 30,000 YEARS AGO AND BEFORE.

PLEASE TELL ME, ASIDES IMAGINARY HEAVEN, WHAT REAL LIFE PROBLEM CAN WE SOLVE FROM THE JEWISH BIBLE, TORAH, AND KORAN?

WE WANT TO FOLLOW A RACE AND BOOK, SO WE DISCARD ALL THE KNOWLEDGE IN OUR AFRICAN BOOKS PROVIDED BY OUR ANCESTORS AND FOLLOW THE DUMB JEWS cheesy cheesy

SMART WHITE MAN AS USUAL. GAVE US DUMB JEWISH BOOK AND LEFT WITH ALL THE KNOWLEDGE THEY COULD FIND IN ETHIOPIA, EGYPT AND SOUTH AFRICA.

WE'VE BEEN MOLESTED AND ROBBED, AND WE DON'T KNOW IT YET.

Sometimes, if you tell people the plans you have for them, the things that are meant to happen to make that plan successful, will not happen.

This is no proof that the story is true, only proof that people believed in that story then. Very different.

Anyone that believes that that legend is literally true needs a brain check.

Experiment with and reenacted? Can you reenact your death or experiment with it scientifically?
