Are you a mind-reader, now, that you assume you know my heart? Do you know the contours of it? Where the shallows and the depths are? Where the boiling seas and the calm waters are located? Hey, seeing as how you know me so well then you should be able to tell.
(Felt like waxing poetic, in the manner of God in the Book of Job. Heh)
Funny how you cut out the rest of my sentence, though, how it's a matter of FAITH. And yeah, there's no evidence other than the Gospels. None that I know of, anyway. Funny thing, is, Faith isn't prerequisite on a determination if something is 100% fact or not. That kind of thing can be hedged by time and by men trying to cover up the real truth. So when it comes down to it, do you recognize truth, REAL Truth when you hear it?
Don't ever insult me again by claiming that my heart doesn't have the capacity to recognize Truth when it hears it, when you know absolutely nothing about it.

As a matter of fact, there have been some historians who have concluded there is more evidence for the existence of Jesus Christ than there is for Julius Caesar, particularly in regard to the impact of that life on individuals and upon civilization. Other historians have said that there is compelling evidence for the resurrection. Some have tried to disprove the resurrection looking sole at evidence, only to become convinced of its reality. Don't be to hasty with your conclusions if you're ignorant of these works.
I don't have to be a mind reader to know your heart. The stridency of your contrary attitude toward the most important Christian teaching reveals your heart perfectly well.
