Couldn't the same thing be said about God?

Then couldn't the same be said of all recorded history
where the witnesses can no longer be cross-examined, ruined, executed?

I more subscribe to the theory that witnesses who died defending their own
observation, are more compelling than those who would have written for any
other reason. Also that witnesses may not have fully understood all they
heard or saw, but reported because it was noteworthy. This also lends to
credibility, because those with a hidden agenda usually restrain themselves
from presenting testimony that doesn't contribute to their argument.

There is more evidence to support much of what is recorded in the Bible,
than required to convict someone of Murder. I would suggest a book by Lee
Strobel, "The Case for Christ" as a method to ordering and initiating their
own logical investigation. In the end you will have to be open to the Holy
Spirit before anything can come of it. Salvation comes by invitation only.
My own conclusions came when I realized the teachings of Christ were the
only hope of saving the human race from it's own self-destruction. Further,
that it could succeed against the odds.
