The fact is, you're using reasoning the any adherent of any other religion could use to prove that Christianity is actually the false one, and yet you still bluster about how you've "shown us the miracle evidence" or "demonstrated that it's rational" to believe that Christianity is correct.
If a Muslim put together a similar paragraph to yours, saying that Jesus' miracles weren't as impressive as Mohammed's (though Jesus had a handful of cool ones), saying that many of Jesus' miracles were just "improbable", and saying that many of Jesus' major miracles have "debate on whether or not they happened", and then summed it up by saying "I don't think they were miracles because I don't believe that Christianity is true, and obviously God wouldn't perform miracles to deceive us of what is true, which is Islam."
What could you say against him? He would be using the exact same reasoning you have been using this entire time.
The attestation of the crucifixion. Without that portion, it ALL unravels. Perhaps you are unaware of its importance. That God took on the form of a man to be a final sacrifice to bridge the gap so that man can have a relationship with his creator.
