Catholic Logic, 101

By way of Unreasonable Faith, they’ve apparently found the bones of St. Paul, the founder of Catholicism. The reasoning behind this earth-shattering, skull-bursting discovery?

So they tested some bones, and determined they belonged to someone who lived between 1 AD and 200 AD.

Therefore, it must be the Apostle St. Paul?

Sure, it could be. Or it could be anyone’s bones from that time period.

Same thing I was thinking, as it is obvious that his bones would be the only ones that could possibly survive. As I see it, there are no other human remains from the first century, C.E. There’s just no way there could be.
