No, it's not "reasonable" at all. Are you kidding? How many communists were tortured and killed defending lies? How many Islamic warlords and terrorists? Or are you saying you believe the claims and doctrines of Stalin and Muhammad are truthful as well?
The nature of delusions is such that one is convinced of truthfulness of their own bullsh*t.
Oh yeah - and how about you PROVE that any of the new testament was written by Jesus' "disciples" (which would suggest they were eye-witnesses), as opposed to people who weren't even born yet, while Jebus allegedly existed. What? You can't? Oh, dear...
