It's been shown to you over and over again. You just say "nuh uh" and move on. I haven't seen where. I've read the scholarship and have read the pop books like Erhman's. I've critiqued his book here to some degree of depth. I've interacted with some of the most ardent historicists. I'm not sure wha...

The case has been made over and over and over again. You're not interested in the evidence, only your conspiracy theory. Although there are conspiracy theories about creation of Christianity, I don’t think Stem’s argument is one of them. The idea that Jesus was never a historical person is quite li...

Mythicists are just a few cranks on the fr...
