In your opinion what causes christians to believe in Jesus

[Sheldon]

Ah, I missed it. Pretty generic, but definitely an answer. Thank you.

I then spent the next 100 pages defending it at a deeper level,

That's a matter of opinion, and I strongly disagree, you refused point blank to offer any of the good reason you claimed for your belief / faith. You have used a fair amount of sophistry and semantics of course, the one answer to whether there was evidence, was circular reason, that assumed your conclusion n your opening premise.
