Secular history/REAL evidence are all that matters because it can be checked and verified by EVERYONE as being true or false, real or fictional. NO FAITH IN AUTHORITIES OR OLD BOOKS REQUIRED.

However, religious versions of history will ALWAYS have a built-in bias and skewed perspective that starts with their pre-determined conclusions that they then try to force any and all evidence (or even NO evidence) to conform to those presuppositions.

But reasonable people know to FIRST seek and study the actual evidence with as little bias as possible and that will lead them to the most honest conclusions humanly possible.
