If you claim to be a person who streaked in the desert and you did not streak in the desert, then you are actually not a person who streaked in the desert. You are not the entity you claimed to be.
If I say I know a guy who streaked in the desert on Tuesday and you can verify that no one streaked in the desert on Tuesday, then I actually don't know a guy who streaked in the desert on Tuesday, even if that guy was Joe, and he told me he did it, and I totally believed him and Joe really exists, he's not a guy who streaked in the desert on Tuesday, which is who I said I knew, and that guy doesn't actually exist. No guy who is supposed to have streaked through the desert on Tuesday actually exists, because it didn't happen.
If I'm trying to convince you that Joe is real, I need to ditch the streaking through the desert story, which is easy for me, because it's not like it's holy scripture or anything.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
