I will only address a few of your retorts..

First, Mormonism teaches that men become Gods in the afterlife, but
women do not. Also, all I need to know is that the Catholic Church does
not recognize mormonism, which takes an aweful lot of doing. Note that
Catholism recognizes most Protestant sects as legitimate.

That depends on your definition of "legitimate": the RCC continues to
regard all Protestant sects as heretical in one way or another.


Regarding Judaism, I'm not talking about agreeing on theology with
Catholicism, but on actual history of divine revelation and the nations
involved. Early Jewish writers such as Jospheseus even mentioned the
life of Christ, as well as his crucifixion.

The references to Jesus in Josephus are almost certainly a later,
spurious addition, by a Christian, not a Jew; they break the flow of
the text, and are written from a Christian, not Jewish viewpoint.
There are no contemporary references to Jesus, and no historical
record of such Gospel events as the Slaughter of the Innocents that
would surely have caught the attention of even secular historians.

But up until Moses, both
traditional churches hold the same historical facts. A solid determiner
to compare with secular history. But there's aheckofalot of
archaological evidences which legitimize things like the five cities in
Genesis, Abraham and Sarah in Ur(Iraq), nation of the hittities(Iran),
Sodom, and many many other findings.

There's also much archeological evidence which contradicts the
Biblical record.

The whole bible geneologies,
stories, names, cities, events, all happened in history and are
verifiable.

Quite simply, this is bollocks.

Even the flood can be argued with solid evidence, unless of
course, one interprets many evidences to areas of the theorized billion
year earth history, such as ice ages(ice age wasn't an era or eras in
history, but was a rapid change in areas during and after the deluge of
Noah). There are evidences I can cite if you like.

Noah's flood was known to geologists to be mythical long before
Darwin.
