Why Yahweh? (Or Allah, or Zeus, etc.)

[John V]

Not in its entirety...

It has multiple references to miracles performed by NT authors.

Which prompted me to find this:http://www.answering-christianity.com/je...racles.htm. What makes Jesus so special, then?

First, my malware software said this site was unsafe, so I didn't see it.

Second, I generally don't respond to "arguments" which are just a link. I expect you to quote or summarize the relevant material. (Youtubes are straight ouot of the question!)

I'm just going by their reasoning...I don't agree that it is evidence either.

OK.

Oh wait, isn't that an argument from silence to say that because we haven't found that text, it probably doesn't exist?

It would be if I made that argument. I made the positive argument that the earliest Christian documents contain the miraculous. Critics can and do speculate that such texts existed, but the burden of proof is on them.

Does that mean I can say that the Romans never wrote about Jesus performing any miracles, and because miracle claims of the time were common, that means he probably didn't perform any?

Sure - all you need to do is show a whole bunch of Roman contemporaneous documentations of foreign religions' miracle claims in the first century, and you'll have a valid argument from silence. We've been over this already.
