Move those stories 1800 years in the past, and somehow they become even more reliable.
That is a textbook example of special pleading. What is the title of this thread again?
Intellectual honesty is not quite your thing, is it Steve?
Straw manning, and poisoning the well are not exactly intellectual qualities either.
You do realize Steve DID speak for him self on the matter, and his answer is what Simon was responding to? So, how is that a straw man? And please identify the "poisoning the well" fallacy here, because I don't think you understand what it means.
In other news, I'm still waiting for you to answer a question I asked you pages ago. I'll ask again. Do you think that the testimony in the Bible is high quality, reliable testimony? Why or why not?
