^....You have lumped two things together that cannot be lumped together..evidence and proof. If you want evidence for the *Bible then there is an exorbitant amount...but if you want proof, that is a different story. There really isnt any "proof" of anything. People like to think that science provides proof but it does not..it only provides evidence. Pure science is based on theory and evidence; what scientists give us is simply their interpretation of the two things.

That being said..I think Christians are usually placed on the defensive side of this issue so i'd like to turn the tables here and ask you to provide me with proof (keep in mind the aforementioned concept), and then you will find yourself in quite the same quandry that christians are in.
