Why do gospel contradictions matter?

I'm so tired of having to deal with this: no, the gospels are not eyewitness accounts. The gospels were anonymously authored, with their epigraphs coming into being centuries later based on church tradition and not fact; since we don't know who wrote them, you can hardly claim that they were eyewitnesses. You don't even know who they are.

And even if you did, it wouldn't matter, because you can't justify the bible's claims using other parts of the bible. There are no claims to have witnessed any of the events in those books from outside sources, so you're relying on circular reasoning even if you weren't factually incorrect, which you are.
