Prof. Matt McCormick gives one of the arguments from his book Atheism and the Case Against Christ. The evidence we have for real magic at the Salem Witch Trials is much better than the evidence we have for Jesus' resurrection. So if we accept the latter, then we are forced to conclude that there was real magic in Salem. But that's not reasonable. So we should reject both.
