The problem is the Kuzari principle basically relies on saying "no one would ever believe such a claim," when the facts staring at us from history and even today are that there are no limits to what people will believe in contravention of all evidence and reason. People would never believe a claim that an entire nation saw something? Why not? Millions of people believe much crazier things with no problem. And by the way, I wish you guys would read Exodus. It's totally unclear what the Israelites saw or didn't see, hear or didn't hear, at Sinai. It's a massively garbled account, with dozens of contradictions. So many different traditions jammed in there, it's ridiculous to say "this is what the tradition claims..."
Actually not too many people although this often dubbed the “kuzari argument,” it was first put down by saadia goan in his Emunot Vedeot although there he invokes the miracle of the manna , as well the Splitting of the Sea.. check it out… he used way more forcefully
Tysm!
3:30 i think it absolutely would hold up in a court of law. It's a simple matter of historical record /historical FACT.
altercockerjewishatheist.blogspot.com/2017/05/index-of-posts-by-category_29.html provides numerous refutes to Kuzari style argument.

Hindu folklore is not Net (nationally experienced tradition )

Lol in the hindu proof, every one who was a witness dies. Check into it. In the Torah, it says "who has seen what you have seen and LIVED"
If i got it wrong please show me the texts from hindus. Ive looked for such.
Please give me reference for the Hindu part
