K.

Obviously, 500 is an exact number! So what if it just happens to be even?
I saw a zombie the other day. Loads of them in fact. 10 days ago . . .

This, of course, is a pure lie. I saw zombies 9 days ago and I would have to be an idiot to make up something like 9 days ago. Therefore, it must be true.

Where's your worldwide following? You can try to influence the world and get people to live as one, but here's the kicker: you can't write anything down.

Let's give you 3 years to preach without you making one single original writing and without any news media outlets filming you.

I bet you don't even come close to accomplishing what Jesus accomplished and I'm letting you travel all over the world! Jesus only had one small spot and blew up into the popular religion and name in existence today.

Can't the same thing be said for...I don't know, Mohammed, Buddha, pick your chrismatic leader in the ancient past? Jesus didn't have a monopoly on people passing around his teachings.

Next argument.
