Moronic?
Actually, you DID say Court of Law, and you grew up in Florida, where I currently live. It would be absurd to to think you were talking about a court system from a completely different country.
You're claiming I used a straw man. Nonsense. I used your actual argument.
you claim a court ruled he deserved execution because he claimed to be the son of God, but there is no evidence that there ever was such a court ruling, so YOU are the one employing circular reasoning, relying on a court ruling that never happened to prove the thing happened because a court ruling condemned him. That is the definition of circular reasoning. It is far from "moronic." It is definitive.
You cannot prove there WAS a trial of Christ. Therefore, you cannot draw conclusions from that trial. Otherwise, your reasoning is circular.
Pilate did not point blank ask Jesus anything because Jesus likely never appealed before Pilate. The only evidence he did comes from sources that claim Pilate did things the real Pilate, according to reliable sources, never would have done. Like release a murderer because it was Passover. He never did that. Not only was it not his custom; it was antithetical to his vicious philosophy.
So if you want to claim the gospels as evidence the gospels happened, then I get to claim Amazing Fantasy 10 as evidence that Amazing Fantasy 10 happened, and therefore Spider-Man is real!
P.S.
No Spider-Man does NOT mean there is no New York, no Empire State Building, and no Twin Towers that were destroyed on 9/11.
It only means the fictional character who purportedly lived in NYC at the time those things existed... didn't.
