Because Jesus offered no evidence able to withstand anything with even the faintest hint of modern scrutiny. Not only is Jesus not my or any educated person’s equal in the weight that his alledged saying could possibly deserves, Jesus is literally nothing as far as the weight of his alledged pronouncements. There is nothing that he alledgedly said that is of evidentiary value, and there is nothing of evidentiary value to show he actually said any of the nothing he putatively said
He is nothing, squared, as support or guide or evidence during serious exploration of reality.
So the author and inspiration of a given religion is not 'expert' enough to comment on his own religion?
Wouldn't that be like Not taking the word of Elon Musk on a raptor engine design of his own making?
