Why is it whenever this brought up an appeal to authority is invoked to people who weren't there? Why not just use evidence to prove your position instead of telling me what some random priest in the 2nd century thought about zombie-skydaddy?
There is no evidence he existed and the narratives disagree with each other. Easily could have been a fraud by James and Peter.
Tell that to the scholars of antiquity. I'm just reporting what the prevailing thought is by people who study such matters because it was falsely claimed that most believe that Jesus was a myth.
Sure. Hey guys hate to be a buzzkill and I know you have a sweet gig inventing one crazy way after another to make this myth be true but there really isn't anything here. It is a superstructure with no substructure. Until someone digs up some old letter or something you got nothing.
I don't think anyone in this thread did that. I know what they believe, I just don't care. Again
In a way I sorta get it. There are like these Sherlock Holmes appreciation groups that have spent all this effort trying to find the historical 221B baker street. It is fun to pretend that a fictional character exists in the real world.
Preach!
