Then why are you bothering to argue? Just admit you do not understand how to read history, myth or literature sufficiently well enough to distinguish them without the help of a librarian.
It is simple incredulity - you have no genuine basis for discrediting any of the witnesses - 'I don't believe it' is not a genuine basis. Or legitimate. Or rational.
An assertion with zero evidence is just an assertion - you can't impeach the witnesses appropriately; you can't distinguish myth from history; and that gives me perfect grounds for discrediting you as an expert witness - which makes this all baseless assertion.
I'll remind you now that you began this argument with your assertions - the burden is still on you.
Nonsense - the Gospels not only hold up, but time and again they have been proven correct when historians thought they were in error.
Incredulity and a poor interpretation of literary forms do not help you case.
