Counting the number of assertions is not evidence of the veracity of the story. You need to consider the source of each one and how interdependent they all are.

And how well they comport to known facts.  Like, you know, how physics and biology work.

We're entering "Jesus' miracles must've happened because they didn't obey natural laws" territory.  I trust I don't need to point out how fallacious that is.

and then we see a denomination with evidence of a caliber the standard Christers can only dream about having in regards to their beliefs and we see they have problems with that evidence !!


So, if evidence is too good it becomes suspect ??

Think
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
