Oh, no, neither am I. It's like that with things that happened 2000 years ago in circles not really well documented. It's very, very rare that anything can be decided with complete certainty. But I just can't really see any reason to doubt it. I mean, any other explanation seems even less likely. It's interesting to examine though, I heard a podcast recently where a scholar explained how much of the gospels the real Yeshua had actually said. It turns out, very, very little. And while the story of Jesus seems hard to explain without some Yeshua participating, the story of his resurrection seems very easy to explain away, apparantly.
