Even for things you wouldn't say are facts, you're admitting us atheists have no reason to believe the supernatural stuff happened beyond reasonable doubt? And considering we're talking about supernatural stuff, what is reasonable doubt is much bigger in scope. At least it should be, for anyone interested in the truth.
I agree, historical study often does not put things beyond reasonable doubt. But that's not the message I've been getting from you, and joining a religion seems to be putting a lot more than historical probability into action.
I didn't get an answer to this so I'm putting it up again.
