There's people who aren't going to believe something like that strictly on the basis of hearsay. And I agree with those people when they say that the claim should be very easy to prove if it was true. And the fact is the proof isn't there.
I also disagree when you say the piece doesn't debunk Christianity. I can't see how any rationally minded person can read it and still attach any credibility to Christianity.

Agree to disagree. I do see your point that believing in Christianity can't really be backed up by real proof, but all I'm saying is that those who believe do so on the basis of faith, not proof.
