Otherwise it's far from that simple, since people make this identical claim for innumerable deities they imagine are real.
Can you demonstrate any objective evidence that any deity exists outside of the human imagination, or that any deity is even possible? If not then I must remain disbelieving, just as I would for any other claim, and I see no reason to treat god claims to a different standard than any other claim.
That claim also looks like a textbook circular fallacy to me. I'd link an explanation, but haven't been here long enough to post links yet. Of course you could look it up yourself.
If something happened more than 2,000 years ago, how would you know?
