Bigfoot was brought up by Joe Rogan during his interview with Stephen Meyer, as discussed in Paulogia's review of the interview in this video:
Stephen Meyer: And then that there were reports that he had been, that he had appeared to many after being resurrected. So there's a whole ...
Joe Rogan: Right, but there's reports of Bigfoot.
Paulogia: Right again Joe, but at least for Bigfoot we have first-hand reports. For Jesus's resurrection all we have are reports of reports. At best. More likely, reports of reports of reports of reports. Bigfoot is in higher evidential standing.
Another atheist source similarly asserts:
Bigfoot Has More Eyewitness Claims Than Jesus Christ’s Resurrection
Indeed, according to Wikipedia (which in turn cites other sources):
Sightings
According to Live Science, there have been over 10,000 reported Bigfoot sightings in the continental United States. About one-third of all claims of Bigfoot sightings are located in the Pacific Northwest, with the remaining reports spread throughout the rest of North America. Most reports are considered mistakes or hoaxes, even by those researchers who claim Bigfoot exists.
Sightings predominantly occur in the northwestern region of Washington state, Oregon, Northern California, and British Columbia. According to data collected from the Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization's (BFRO) Bigfoot sightings database in 2019, Washington has over 2,000 reported sightings, California over 1,600, Pennsylvania over 1,300, New York and Oregon over 1,000, and Texas has just over 800. The debate over the legitimacy of Bigfoot sightings reached a peak in the 1970s, and Bigfoot has been regarded as the first widely popularized example of pseudoscience in American culture.
To provide additional material for consideration, here is a two-part interview with a Bigfoot eyewitness that a Reddit user recommended here: part one and part two. (It's interesting to note there's a whole Reddit community dedicated to Bigfoot.)
So, the atheistic argument from analogy goes something like this: Given the multitude of eyewitness reports supporting Bigfoot's existence, with many still alive and accessible for interview today, it's still deemed rational by most people to dismiss Bigfoot's existence, because most people consider the evidence weak and uncompelling given such an extraordinary claim (i.e., the well-known "extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence"). Thus, if we use the same logicepistemology consistently, says the atheist, shouldn't we also dismiss claims about Jesus' resurrection? After all, this is similarly an extraordinary claim, and the evidence available is arguably even weaker, as the number of purported witnesses is far fewer, and none are alive today for interrogation (and as Paulogia remarks in the video linked at the beggining, it's quite likely that what we have is not even reports of reports, but reports of reports of reports of reports).
How do Christians break the symmetry? How is this atheistic argument from analogy invalid?
Note. There is a similar purported analogy between Jesus' resurrection and the golden plates. The following is a very thought-provoking discussion: Why do non-LDS Christians accept the testimonies of the apostles but reject the testimonies of the 3 & 8 witnesses to the golden plates?
