Are you claiming that I should because the quality and quantity of evidence for the above assertions is equal to that of the Bible? That would be a very foolish suggestion on your part.
Are you claiming your assertions are unquestionable?
So I should only believe your foolishness?
Quality and Quantity of stories do not make them true.

Your capacity for doubt is not in question. I would still like to know if you hold ALL works of antiquity to the same standard?

Why would I not?
Do you believe Augustus was savior and the Son of God?
Do you believe Bar Kokhba was the Messiah?
Do you think Alexander was the offspring of a god?
Do you believe the Pharaoh was the judge of all the earth and the son of Ra?

That isn't the question. Reverse that. SHould the claims of the New testament be held to a different standard than those?

You obviously think so.

I was offering to compare and contrast the evidence for your assertions. Apparently, you are not interested.
