And besides, even if you HAD an argument for testimony, nothing written down in the Bible even comes close to eyewitness testimony. So, you're wasting your time if all of this is for Jesus.
It has everything to do with the point I was making, Steve. A point you apparently still don't comprehend.

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.
