Zvi,

Believe me - I got your point.  But remember - this whole thing started when Sophiee asked (link):
"how can (Michael Brown) continue to pitch the same woo when he has to realize that he is wrong in so many areas?"
Disregarding the inherent chutzpah of presuming that he "realizes that he is wrong", I was simply trying to offer one possible explanation as to why he might persist with his faith in Jesus, in spite of being shown the error of his ways.  You may say that the supernatural experiences of Christians are irrelevant, but it's just possible that no amount of "convincing" can undo what has taken place in his life.  You can quote any scripture you like, until you're blue in the face.  But it takes an act of God to change a person's heart.

What is the difference between "empirically verifiable proof" and a "historical basis"?  In any case, according to the secular "scholars" of the world, you have neither.

By the way, regarding the "everyday miracles" that keep coming up in this thread... I'll point out again that people of all faiths lay claim to those same miracles, and give credit to their deity. They prove nothing to unbelievers.  But we can be grateful for a merciful God, Who causes the rain to fall on everyone, regardless of their religion.
