The difference is that we have a severe lack of information to go by when assessing the reliability of what a 2000-year-old man said about his own experiences.
With Joseph Smith, we have a much clearer picture.
Are you not just making an appeal to ignorance???
No, he's saying that if you're looking the information at hand to assert that it's uncertain exactly why Joseph Smith died, he is justified in looking at the (even smaller) amount of information at hand and asserting that it's uncertain exactly why Paul died.
He's using your standard of evidence to discredit your argument/conclusion.
Verbatim from the mouth of Jesus (retranslated from a retranslation of a copy of a copy):
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you too will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. How can you see your brother's head up his ass when your own vision is darkened by your head being even further up your ass? How can you say to your brother, 'Get your head out of your ass,' when all the time your head is up your own ass? You hypocrite! First take your head out of your own ass, and then you will see clearly who has his head up his ass and who doesn't." Matthew 7:1-5 (also Luke 6: 41-42)
