Yes, I have seen this site, and the others like it the author has posted. I find the site to be brutally honest about some of the ridiculous things many 'christians' claim to be true. All based on the belief that the Bible is 'God's full, true, inerrant word.'
The problem, I think, with this site is that it is not presented in a persuasive way. It is presented in a combative way. It puts a few things into a stark perspective for people who already have come to agree that there are more holes in the Bible than one can count (I mean this literally, since we'll never know what the original source material stated) But I highly doubt it will do anything for a fundamentalist's belief system other than raise new claims of martyrdom.

That has to be the most ridiculous article I've ever read. Of course, I wouldn't expect any non-believers to agree with me. For you will do anything to disprove the truth - which is what is supposed to happen anyways. It was predicted - in the Bible.
However, that is just insane what the author has said. For Christ to prove He was God by solid, time-withstanding miracles?!? They obviously haven't read the Bible in it's full context and deep meaning.
Christ didn't go aroudn saying "Yo, watch this - I just made this blind dude see - now doesn't that prove I'm the son of God?" He did those acts out of love from people who were anxious to see, hear, and be near Him. Most people wanted to persecute Him though - but some flocked to Him and it was with that faith and desire that He healed them. He didn't do it for a show. Many time He asked for His disciples not to speak of what just happened. And for those miracles He performed is also one of the reason they wanted to crucify Him - not only because He said He was the promised savior but because He did perform those acts and they thought He possessed devils.
That article is just satan's way of trying to disprove the Bible and God's good word. There was proof 2000 years ago and many who witnessed it still shunned Him. Asking for Him to move a mountain is absurd - why would He? So all the corrupt people of the world who speak so horribly about Him now could say "Wow - I guess He did exist, I believe now" No way. I wouldn't want traitors such as those in my kingdom either.
One day, there will be proof beyond all other. And it will probably be too late for all those of who made a serious effort to disprove Christ and the Lord. But there will be proof, and I gurantee it will be agony for those who finally get what they've been looking for - HARDCORE PROOF.

Good site. Unfortunately even such an account as it mentions wouldn't be enough. There would be evidence that the mountain had moved and Pi would be similarly impressive, but it would not prove that the book that had these claims in was written by Jesus. Plagiarism abounds.

Yes; there are a few people here who regularly link to it in their answers.
