Yeah, they're all special pleading but I felt like I needed to throw him a bone.

But all religions engaging in special pleading, doesn't mean that they don't all engage in it. So it isn't true that: "Thats why accepting eye witness testimony for any one of them is not special pleading." It precisely IS special pleading.
