Ad hominem, my parents had nothing to do with my decision to research a historical document. I was agnostic. I am Catholic now.
Your Jonah comment is also a strawman fallacy, I am not here to defend the old testament or the claim a man was in a fish for 3 days. I am here to defend the new testament.
If you are to verify a historical person. It is you who need to tell me how you do so with evidence so we have the same standard to apply to both the Disciple's and Paul's authenticity. I have my 4 tests different test, 1 is manuscript evidence, we have physical documents in original Greek all agreeing with eachother, correlating and cross referencing the same claims the eye witnesses saw.
Paul was after Jesus's death. He was not an eye witness other than what he claimed when he converted. That Jesus appeared to him and asked him why he was persecuting him. I COMMEND you for finding the forgery and dishonesty in Paul's writings. Now, show me the evidence you claim is true. I have offered none, because I know I cannot produce 100% proof.
I would also encourage you to look at the original post. It has to do with Jesus as a historical person. Which is agreed upon by the majority of scholars and the comments. We are now on the subject because I mentioned what the eyewitneses SAW. If because, Paul was not a direct eyewitness and cannot be credible. Then so to are most historical figures. There is nobody alive who saw George Washington. We know he existed, becuase the evidence is. We have autobiographies, writings and accounts from others as Washington was mostly illiterate. But we cannot 100% prove. The evidence tells us it is undeniable. So we have good confidence as such.
Is there anything else I can do for you, to explain my position better to you. What do you mot understand? What other evidence do you need?
@realRobertArmel Thank you for clarifying! You are a boon to have and I am happy to have been shown something I never knew about this specific verse. Next time, I will be sure to be more specific when referencing a verse. ππ
God go with you!
If you refuse to watch the video, explained by a wiser man than I. Then I can never convince you.
You are looking for physical specifics of an account that happened 2000 years ago. Because I know I CANNOT produce this. We need to verify, together, the authentic of the eye witnesses.

This these videos I am sharing, is knowledge I am repeating from someone else because they put it better to voice than I could in text. Just as one would do over video call or in class referencing a professor in a specific school/college
@BuffaloWingDave@MucusMucous1@EmmanuelAy33973 In accordance with your wants. I will allow you to reflect and speak no further.
For who could deny your truth. It must be true based on what you said.
God go with you!
@BuffaloWingDave@MucusMucous1@EmmanuelAy33973 So at this point your trolling. You can refute someone all you want. It doesnt make your position correct.
If your claim is true. Show me, biblically or rationally why it is true and mine is false. Not because you know more or that I am "bad at this", give me evidence.
@BuffaloWingDave@MucusMucous1@EmmanuelAy33973 All 12 deciples, historical, saw him. 500 people and Paul, saw him. That is what is written. That is the evidence.
What is yours to show it was not so?
@BuffaloWingDave@MucusMucous1@EmmanuelAy33973 You have made a claim with zero evidence. Show me. You are trolling.
I will not agree or disagree till you can back it up with evidence.
@BuffaloWingDave@MucusMucous1@EmmanuelAy33973 If someone writes about Goerge Washington, that isnt Goerge Washington and talks about the people he associated with. Is this not evidence?
