[quote=Anonymous]Data and evidence used in academic research differs from evidence used in the legal system. The pps asking for “hard evidence” and complaining that the evidence the scholars and academics use in the historicity of Jesus Christ is “circumstantial evidence” reflects that they don’t understand the difference.

They haven’t attended college, worked hard to earn a degree, and had to do research… much less learn ancient languages, translate ancient manuscripts, etc.

Scholars and academics use things like: scholarly essays that analyze original works
Passages of text
Primary Sources (photos, letters, maps, official documents, etc.)
Other books or articles that interpret primary sources or other evidence
Books or articles that interpret data and results from other people’s original experiments or studies.
Results from one’s own field research (including interviews, surveys, observations, etc.)
Data from one’s own experiments
Statistics derived from large studies

It is important to remember that evidence NEVER speaks for itself. Any evidence used to support a position must be explained.

Its’s probably trolling, plus lack of understanding, that drives their behavior.

When I saw repeated comments asking for “hard evidence” and complaining the evidence these academics use as “circumstantial” I knew these were children or adults who don’t have a formal education.

They can continue to troll and/or display they don’t know what they are talking about, and play the victim and say they are being attacked, but that’s not true at all.
