A simple dismissal of all this by your confirmation bias may keep you satisfied but it will not help you persuade others of your opinion...
Unsubstantiated claims will receive no further replies from yours Truly™.

Thank you. Your post is an excellent example of the
unproductive argumentation scheme I described in my post above. I will pursue this further by praying for you, as it must be more effective than our efforts to make you understand the
difference between opinion and evidence.
Proverbs 26:4
Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest thou also be like unto him.
Yours in Christ,
