I think there's a problem trying to apply the "same standard for all situations." We've all heard of the witnesses to an accident. Ten people saw the accident, but they all came up with different variations of what they saw.
It seems age of the witness has much to do with what they saw.
Even when it comes to belief in god, there are so many gods without evidence, it becomes a philosophical problem. And yet, they all have 'believers.'
