Highball, I see you have not addressed my post #782.

Clearly, you have no way to explain away why virtually the entire world uses the birth of Jesus as the reference point of all of history.

Surely you're not suggesting that the objective truth of an idea may be ascertained by its popularity?

I do not dispute that the remnants of the Roman Empire were sucessful in spreading Christianity, just as the British Empire spead the English language across the globe. None of that addresses the objective truth of Christ's resurrection or serves as proof thereof.
