Q: Evidence for the virgin birth? Not as strong as resurrection evidence, but that's okay — not every doctrine needs the same burden of proof. Mike believes it because Scripture teaches it. The argument chain: resurrection → inspiration of Scripture → virgin birth. The central claim (resurrection) carries the secondary claims.

The resurrection has massive historical evidence. The virgin birth rests on the inspiration of Scripture, which rests on the resurrection, prophecy, and Jesus' testimony. It's a mistake to demand independent proof of every Christian doctrine — prove the central claim, and related claims follow from trusting the source.
