Testimony is Evidence

[SteveII]

Why do you cling to this unsupported assertion? Your reason has been obvious since the beginning: you want to preserve your objection to the evidence for Christianity. 

For the fourth (and last) time, tell me why this is not more accurate:

     1 A witness's recollection could be wrong
     2 The witness's character, cognitive ability, subject knowledge, experiences, and track record serve can minimize the possibility of error
     3 The context of the event can minimize the possibility of error
     4 Therefore the reliability of testimony varies depending on the witness and the context

What you don't get is that it is up to the one hearing an idea to establish the quality of evidence required.  If I've known someone a long time, then even very weak evidence is acceptable. . . to me.  If I perceive a person to be honest, then their testimony is good enough. . . for me.  If enough people speak in moving terms about how the Flying Spaghetti Monster saved their miserable lives, then their testimony is good enough. . . for me.

So. . . start producing testimony, and I'll tell you if I consider it sufficiently strong for me to adopt the God idea.

How do you know "I don't get"? I don't disagree with your first three sentences. It also has nothing to do with the topic/point I was making. 

As to your last sentence, that is not the topic of this thread or this subforum.
