It's typical binary religious thinking to insist accounts be either totally true or totally false.
Taking 'the bits you like' and ignoring the bits 'you don't like' is not a lovely thing.
You must have reasons on why you took that bit, or why you refused that bit.
Credibility؟؟
Bits I like?
Bits that are even possible, as far as we know. I don't like any of it, it's all fucking stupid. But some of it is remotely believable, and some is not.
I guess Spider Man must exist because he's in comic books which feature New York. Or are you just picking out New York because you don't like Spider Man?
See, insisting on all or nothing is plainly ridiculous.
If I tell you I went to the shops, played football and then ate 8 million pizzas, must you believe all those statements or none of them? Can you pick out one that "stands out" an unbelievable?
If I'm to assess the general credibility of the author, then I'd just say none of it happened. I'm trying to be generous.
