What's sad is your attempt to prove the Bible by saying that it must be true because it is popular.

Yes, we know this (someone help me as to which fallacy it is. Burden of proof maybe?). But, if theories back against something, would that not make the other stance a little more... [for lack of a better word] likable, at least?

Why am I even posting about this? Lol.

I never said it was credible because it was popular, it is undeniable because it was written over a 1600 year span by people from all walks of life, it has been proven that the bible is one of the most accurate pieces of history ever written. Even the fact that it has withstood hundreds of years of people just like you trying to find its faults, only to fail, makes its truth that much more promising

Note: Only A and B are possible positions, which are opposite to each other.

If I provide evidence against position A, this evidence does not make position B correct.

What fallacy is that my dear sir?

And then my second part:
Would this evidence against position A at least make position B more likable?

I think that's what I was saying.

That's not a fallacy, that's just an invalid argument.

A OR B

NOT A

THEREFORE B

That's a disjunctive syllogism.
