Yes, it does. The fact that you have made bullshit your standard for evidence because you sought a to justify christianity does not mean bullshit thereby becomes an acceptable standard for evidence, for anything, including christianity, nor does that mean the outcome you sought to gain with your "standard of evidence" therefore gains any credibility.
It is that absolute.
