You say this as you appeal to probability..with no math included, while begging the question, in pursuit of a non sequitur...and what I'm being "unreasonable" about is not accepting any of that.....
OFC I can't use it, belief isn't even a factor. Even if I did believe in HJ your argument would still be useless, I still couldn't use it to demonstrate the truth of the HJ proposition, and it's being tore up from the floor to the ceiling still doesn't demonstrate the reverse. This argument very literally tells us nothing.
I accept jesus for what he demonstrably is and no more. A character in the NT.
We're talking history here, not deductive logic or maths ...
