When a proof needs its own proof and slumps toward reduction to absurdity (600,000 witnesses wearing black hats, etc.), it’s in trouble. It ought to be enough to demonstrate the sustainability of Torah, its ability to sustain Am Yisrael, and its (distorted) adoption by other nations to satisfy all but the most dogmatic doubters of its underlying truth. As for accepting the truth of the details, we call it faith, don’t we?
