We do not have to "believe" that George Washington existed. The evidence is overwhelming.
Even his enemies talked about him.
Quote: “If he does that, he will be the greatest man in the world.”
Said King George III about George Washington:
But it isn't just that his enemies talked about him, it's that people who were demonstrable direct eyewitnesses, who were in a position to know him personally wrote about him. There isn't a single contemporary account of Jesus anywhere. Not one person who could have possibly ever known Jesus ever mentioned him. Not one. It's all, at best, second and third hand accounts by people who lived long after Jesus supposedly died. That's not evidence. That's heresay.
There is nothing demonstrably true that religion can provide mankind that cannot be achieved as well or better through secular means.
