Did Jesus die and rise from the dead?

Some people convince more easily than others, it's a matter of degrees. Most people claim to know whether Jesus was historical or not, so there you go.

Some people are also trained to think critically about the information that’s set before them, to weigh evidence and formulate a realistic stance. This part of what we learn in seminary.

It's easy to be convinced when you only here one side. Be careful in that regard.

I’ve heard many sides. Trust me. A good seminary is broad in its teaching.

Another failure. It makes the unsupported claim that DNA indicates intelligence. That has never been shown to be the case. They also think that the fact that the universe as we know it is evidence for God. It isn't. It only shows that the universe began.

In fact those people do not understand the nature of scientific evidence. There is no scientific evidence for God and you can support that claim. Tell me, what reasonable test could refute the existence of God?

That may be true. Even then, however, you could have gotten significant details wrong, as we all are susceptible to do. Are you sure it was Augustus? If so, does legend give him a supernatural birth, a resurrection, or both?

He had a miraculous birth, and became a Roman state deity after his death. He was proclaimed as “savior.”

Look at how you refuse to understand your errors. I said that you were like a creationist in that regard, not that you were one. You can do better than this.
