But if there was no evidence for a bank being robbed the testimonials would be worthless. Just because lots of people think something does not make it true.
There are for example a lot of people who believe in a magical person coming back after a long time and solving all their problems, a being who left and said they'd be back many years ago.
I am of course alluding to John Frum the deity on the island of Tanna.

On the same island there is a cargo cult which believes that Phil the Greek is god. Yes, Phil the Greek, a man whose only accomplishment is giving the Queen of England a good rogering.
