To clarify: I wasn't saying that pi isn't a number - I was saying that it is an insufficient definition. It is not the same beast as a simple quantity.
Fine, then express -any- lifespan ever, -precisely-, as a "simple quantity". Once again, seeing that you personally don't like how it was expressed, how would you have preferred it be stated in the verse?
What in the world are you talking about? Odds are very good that her age is known and accurate. I've already granted you that there is some slim chance that her age is inaccurate.
You're not fairly representing the basic accuracy of the prediction. It has, unquestionably according to -both- me and you, gotten the maximum age right for billions of people (data points), and -possibly- one wrong. You, by some means of evaluating ages, expect an error rate less than that billions-to-one for your unstated methodology, to determine whether the bible's claim being -perfect- is, or is not, the case. What is that methodology, that you expect to give you better than that billions-to-one error rate, to "measure" the bible against? You haven't even described your criteria or methods in broad terms.
You keep egging me into some pissing competition for prediction of the future - and we wouldn't even know the outcome for 100 years? What are you trying to accomplish?
Mainly to get you to admit what you already know--that the claim is astonishing in its accuracy over the number of unknown people and years it addresses, even interpreting every debatable point in your favor that it is "off" by two years. If you think that's unremarkable, you should have no problem doing it yourself with the huge information advantage you have as a modern-day human. And, indeed, we could know what your relative performance is--I would not be surprised if you can't come up with a figure for, say, highest age in a single American state that isn't shown wrong from the lifespans of the the next decade. You can't do it, you know you can't, but refuse to give any credibility to the vastly-more-impressive case directly in front of you.
