Hello WILLOWTREE,
I must confess, I don't understand your position. You claim to be certain that the disciples were martyred. And yet, if you don't know how, where, when and why they were martyred, it is self-evident that you don't know they were martyred.
You say you don't argue by link because anyone can say anything on a website. People say alot of different things in books also. And the bottom line is, why would you need to refer someone to a book if you know the answer to the question. And if you don't know the answer to the question, you don't know that the disciples were martyred.
So, can you or can you not tell us how, where, when and why each of the disciples were martyred? If you cannot, then you also cannot be certain that they were.
As Ned says, "just common sense, isn't it?"
