Right, and it’s much more likely that some true stories about a great dude got exaggerated a little bit over 2000 years, and vanishingly less likely that magic is real.
Not exactly. Some things can be proven. But regarding things that happened thousands of years ago? Yeah that’s just everyone’s best guess and personal beliefs.
How is faith circular reasoning?
And forgive me for my use of “impossible” earlier, that’s not my position.

You believe that anne frank existed because you believe that she existed, etc, etc
Odd example but correct, we cannot know with absolute certainty. But her story doesn’t feature magic, so it’s much easier to believe.
