A lot of what you say depends on eye witness testimony.

The other day I read about eyewitnesses who saw Elvis.

Because there were eyewitnesses, should I believe what they say too?

I think there is more to faith than simply eyewitness testimony.

One has to trust the words of the eyewitness.

It isn’t simply about seeing and hearing, but about seeing and hearing in a particular way, from a particular angle. The Gospels were not neutral, objective accounts of what happened; rather, the Gospels were prejudiced from the start. They told of the Good News, which is a perspective on the world. It wasn’t just witnessing the events, but witnessing them from a particular angle, from lenses colored by trust.
