Just because people agree on something does not mean that they are right. A multitude of early copies of New Testament documents (written during the lifetimes of the original authors and recipients, thus most likely checked for accuracy) are still in existence today (We have more early copies for the New Testament than we do for any of Homer's Greek legends, and yet those are generally considered reliable). It can be veritably shown that most translations of the Bible today line up rather well with the originals. I will admit that this does not necessarily prove that the Bible is true or divinely inspired, only that it was faithfully preserved.
Anyways, I would recommend avoiding using the term "brain dead" in the future. It is a somewhat contradictory phrase, seeing as it places value on intelligence and proper logic and at the same time committing to an ad-hominem attack that discourages proper civil debate. In addition to this, insulting an opposing viewpoint is almost never an effective way of convincing people.
