-and in that other thread, you're bombing as badly as you are in this one. Arguments from incredulity and ignorance don't lead to anything other than an admission of incredulity and ignorance. As to why it's ill-advised to answer the question of why you believe in magic book by saying "because magic book".....just sit on it for a moment, I think it'll come to you. Try it in a swivel chair. The "life and death of the apostles" is legend -at best-, but more likely myth. Not that it would matter either way. London is a real place, and Mina Harker was based on a real person(s)....the narrative arc of the story expresses a very real historical resentment and zeitgeist. That doesn't mean that Dracula is a historical document. The number of people who believe in vampires or even that they personally -are- one doesn't change that an iota.

I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
