Why can't Christians Verify Exactly Where Jesus Was Buried?

[Thumpalumpacus]

Now I want to point out that I have explained in the past what I mean by an academic expert, and others have other definitions. An expert in any field, whether history, medicine, or physics, is someone who is actively involved in research and who publishes evidence. Evidence is something academic - an edited book chapter, an academic book that can be used as a textbook, peer review, and even good quality grey literature counts as well (government publications, and academic publications by respected organisations such as World Health Organisation or Dietitians Association, etc).

lol, now writing is evidence? No wonder you believed that claptrap for so long.

You are either missing my point or ignoring it. You've said that there are more Holocaust Deniers than there are Jesus Mythicists. I want you, by your own standards of evidence, to support that.

Give me numbers. I don't want another wall of text appealing to special pleading. I want to see your data.

If you don't have it, you should at least be honest enough to admit that you were, well, mounting argumentum ex culo

My point was never to say that Holocaust Denial is more sensible.

No one said that was your point. This is a strawman. And your invocation of Holocaust Denial is both an appeal to emotion and a red herring.

Just that there are more people who claim to be historians who hold that view when compared with Mythicism. There are more Flat-Earther's than there are Mythicists. There are more Creationists than there are Mythicists.

So what? We're not talking about that. Perhaps you'd be so kind as to address the issue at hand?

My point is that everyone in this thread needs to learn to stop quoting from fringe theories with very little, if any, true academic support and look to the body of evidence.

I haven't quoted from any theory at all, fringe or no. I've asked you for the sources to support your claim, and you've signally failed, again, to provide them.

You want another go at it? Show me with numbers that there are more Holocaust Deniers than there are Jesus Mythicists. I'm not asking for your personal experiences or breadth of reading, either, because your claim made neither stipulation.

Or, alternatively, you could simply admit to engaging in hyperbole ... not that I expect that sort of frankness from you.
