Can you still be an atheist after this?

If I'm not mistaken, the Edda predates the Bible.

You are mistaken; the only manuscript ever found of the Poetic Edda, the Codex Regius, was not discovered until the 17th century and has been dated back to the late 13th century. So comparing it to the tens of thousands of manuscripts of the New Testament that have been discovered is inappropriate at best.

I'm not mistaken. It predates the Bible. So you think the more copies of bullshit there are, the more likely it isn't bullshit?

Three people making baseless assertions doesn’t make the assertions anymore true you know.

Wait, does this goes for tens of thousands as well? In that case, you're contradicting yourself again.

That's interesting, what do you accept as support for the existence of historical figures?

Reliable contemporary sources. Corroborating text, such as birth certificates, death certificates, more contemporary sources, paintings done during the figure's lifetime, etc. I do not accept texts written more than a lifetime after the supposed figure's life that is not supported by evidence from that person's lifetime.
