I’m confused. It would have been very difficult for Gilbert West (1703-1756) to state the following:

“there is more historical evidence that Jesus Christ was born, crucified, and was raised from the dead than that Napoleon ever existed.”

Why, you ask? Napoleon was born in 1769, 13 years after Gilbert West died.

Where did the quote come from? It was not sourced.

The quote came from a respected conservative minister on Bott Radio. I thought it would be easy to find, but haven’t, so I’ll withdraw it.

Funny, though, that 24 minutes after I posted it, Google had it on its first page.

Hey! there it is! I wrote it, and then I read it! It must be true.

Laughing at self.
