This mindset completely ignores first principles. What do we know to be true? Jesus Christ is the most famous figure in history and he has split our time from BC to AD (undeniable fact)

If everything about Him were “made up,” you’d have to explain how a small, persecuted group of people managed to invent a figure so compelling that entire empires reorganized their culture, laws, and calendar around Him. The ripple effect itself is evidence. Myths don’t typically reshape history in real-time unless rooted in something real.
