So, yes, of course there's "real" evidence, Jenny. I can give you a dozen reasons to believe that the NT is historically reliable. Tim O'Neill gave the forum reasons why Jesus is not a myth. There are solid reasons to think that the resurrection really happened.

The problem is that none of this is "real" in your opinion. Other folks, equally skeptical at first (and equally intelligent), have arrived at a different conclusion.

You have yet to provide evidence showing the NT is historically reliable.  I find it just about as reliable as Tim O'Neill which is not very.  I'll repeat myself:  I'm pretty sure a man named Jesus was baptized by John the Baptist and preached in and around Galilee, and that he was crucified in Jerusalem.   I'm also sure Paul lived, started churches and preached and that he wrote some of the letters attributed to him.  But the rest of the details are not the least bit reliable for reasons explained to you over and over in your various threads.

Jenny-

I do appreciate the fact that you are more open to those bits than most here. You could get into quite an argument with a few others in this very forum over some of your beliefs.
