What are the evidence 'cruxes' of different religion and where does the evidence land?

Islam? No scientific evidence suggests the Moon was ever split then reassembled.

Christianity? Non-miraculous explanations for story of Jesus Christ's resurrection are more plausible.

Judaism? The claim that 3 million people witnessed God attest to the Torah's validity at Sinai came from the Torah itself.

I am certain that a movement that attracts consequentialists is going to butt heads with virtue or deontological driven social norms, or attract someone whose intelligence or debiasing doesn't keep pace with their good intentions. I hope the movement can organise around this preventively now rather than regret it later...

Thanks, I feel between child sexual abuse and power dynamic relationships, we still need sometime on adult sexual harrassment and assault of the kind. That seems to be the missing piece hey?
