AnswerThe Bible began to be written by people such as Abraham well before Moses produced the Pentateuch in the years between 1446 and 1400 BC. The final books were completed late in the first century AD. The final collection of books which were already recognised as authoritative did not occur until over a century later, which thus gives us the canon or collection of authoritative books we have today, although there are of course some additional books recognized by those of the Catholic faith which are not recognised by other denominations.

How many copies of the Bible are in existence?

All I know is that the Bible has been a top bestseller for a long time, and is available in 2426 languages according to Wycliffe Bible Translators. Or did you mean how many copies of the ORIGINAL Bible are in existence? No complete copies of the original Bible are in existence, but many thousands of manuscript fragments are in existence, enough to ensure, by comparing them to each other, that the Bible we have today is quite accurate. By contrast, many ancient works that are accepted as being totally accurate today, have only ONE copy left to us now.

God's existence cannot be proved but can only be assumed?

That is correct. The existence of God, in fact of any god, can not be proven by any scientific means. His existence can only be assumed, by those who wish to do so. It is sometimes claimed that the Bible proves the existence of God, because to Bible tells us about God, and the Bible is God's word so it must be true. Of course, that is a circular argument that resolves as an assumption, not proof.
