    A bunch of the books in the new testament are letters written by Jesus’s followers. We can’t prove whether they really are that, but they all agree that a dude named Jesus existed. If a bunch of people all wrote about a guy they knew, and most of the details match, that guy probably was real.

        Yeah I’m not arguing with that. You’re just nitpicking semantics because you have lost this argument. Literally the very next sentence after the one you quoted I qualified that by saying it’s debatable.

          What?

          So you’re arguing that “anything is possible” and that means you “won” if someone can’t prove something isn’t real?

          You can’t prove I’m not 6 year old baby Jesus on a time traveling Blackberry…

          But anyone that believes that doesn’t have a rationally sound mind.
