Great.  But that kind of evidence is, by your own account, inherently
subjective, and thereby inadmissible.  The evidence we have for
the eruption of Krakatoa is, on the other hand, not subjective;
you don't have to have been there at its discovery, and photographs
and other depictions are perfectly convincing without any leaps of
faith.

No-one is denying Jesus' existence or even deity here.  We're just arguing
about a distinction between religious and non-religious teachings -
which is a well-defined distinction, no matter what your beliefs.
