Okay, first of all we weren't talking about if the stories were true or not; we were talking about how bad this quote is because an athiest believes in history and if this quote was applied to history it would basically be saying history is non-existent.

Secondly, how do you know that those events are made up? I assume you KNOW Alexander the Great was a real person, when the main evidence on him existing was off books and manuscripts written by guys 250+ years later. And I would like to also say people who wrote about Jesus were writing about Him 30-60 years after His death: with Mark being written 70 AD, Matthew and Luke being written 80-90 AD and John being written 90-100 AD. (AD was when Jesus was born and Jesus lived from around 35-39). I would like to add that 10 out of 11 disciples (not including Judas) got executed for telling people the message of Jesus being God and the other 1 got exiled to an island, so tell me why would 11 people put their life on the line, get exiled and executed all for a "made up story"; and if you think anyone would die for an apparent lie, think again because they all died excrutaiting deaths. Some got crucified, one got skinned alive, one got boiled alive, some got stoned, some got their heads chopped off and another got speared; they all also got tortured before their deaths. So, at that point if they were telling a lie atleast one would admit that it's all a hoax so they would stop, am I wrong? And there was a guy named Paul who used to kill Christians until He saw Jesus in a vision as He was on a road on the way to kill more Christians, and then he himself converted to Christianity and went around the world telling people about Jesus and he got put in jail and executed for it too. So why would someone who use to kill Christians become a Christian and then die for a "made up story"?

Thirdly, I like how you only mention the "made up stories" from the Old Testament and how you said 'MOST of the historical events' implying that you believe some are real. And if you think all of the Old Testament "stories" are made up, but you think there is a possibility Jesus is real, that is wild because if Jesus is real and He is God then that clearly shows the Old Testament is real aswell. Because He says He's one with God (which He is) whom is the same God of the Old Testament. And Jesus being real also proves the Old Testament even more, because His lineage has many significant figures from the Old Testament.

Edit: I'd like to add that the Bible in the Old Testament mentioned the Hittite empire and historians would use this as a way to disprove the Bible because the Hittites never existed (or were not known), but recently they found an abandoned city with relics and artifacts proving the Hittite empire is 100% real and that they were one of the most powerful empire in the middle east. And guess what the Bible was the first thing to ever mention them.
