Agreed !!!!

Which given it is precisely the approach I used when I wrote

'You mean to use evidence here instead of proof and in terms of the existence of  a preacher called Jesus in early CE around the 'Holy Land', then the NT does amount to evidence.'

Then I take it you accept that too?

The Holy Bible, probably the most diabolical work of fiction ever to be visited upon mankind.

An it harm none, do what you will; an it harm some, do what you must!

If the 'evidence' is correct & checkable.

That's a question about its quality not about it being evidence.much of historical evidence isn't checkable, and 'correct' is essentially meaningless in history study.
