Goddess_bb,
There are so many reasons to be beleive it happened!! The written evidence from the time is irrefutable. The Roman emperor at the time even wrote about an "agitator" at the time who was "making trouble among the Jews". This was from people who had no bias or religion, just stating the facts. Thats just one example but nearly all scholars admit that the man Jesus existed, but argue over whether he was the Son of God. Your second question, how can you trust the bible, Yes the bible was written by humans but was "god breathed" (1 Timothy- i think!). The holy spirit opens up the word to beleivers. Its "meaning is veiled" to people who are still in sins prison, people who are not saved. If you are a Christian, just pray that God and His Spirit will quide you and strengthen you and his Word will make sense. YOu will get the key to a whole new world. The bible is an amazing tool, make sure you utilise it!!
