There's plenty of evidence that people who came into contact with Him actually believed they had seen miracles.
The atheist can try to argue those people were mistaken in what they saw but not... that there was never anything to see.
You assholes keep saying that. It's the "evidence" part that you're weak on.
It's the..."THATS NOT EVIDENCE" part which you guys have gotten down to an automatic on-cue reply.
Credible evidence
- Can't be anyone who thinks it's true. (Evangelical motive)
- Cant be anyone who corroborates the exact same story (collusion/plagiarism)
- Cant be anyone who tells a slightly different version (bible errancy)
- Cant be anonymous (Because Julian Assange publishes names and addresses for all his sources.)
