You wrote,

It goes back to Solomon saying “There’s nothing new under the sun.”

Truly? What school did Isaac Newton go to learn about the law of universal gravitation or calculus? What scientific journal did Charles Darwin read in order to understand natural selection?

They don’t understand there are many Christians who have questioned the Bible and came back to it with an even stronger belief of its truth.

What? Can you provide any examples of such freethinker misunderstanding?

For them, 2000 years of faith from millions of people and changed lives is proof of nothing.

Not true at all. It proves the ability of people to self-delude. You certainly agree, unless you believe that Hinduism is the truth.
