Again, the miracles would be enough to create interest and there would be multiple stories around raising Lazarus, for example.  Interestingly enough, it's only told in John - 11:1-44.  Where are the ". . . collection of witnesses, worth of trust?"

I can find multiple primary accounts of Greek theatre, but must rely on the gospels (mainly Mark) for information on Jesus.  same issues, too - illiterate masses relying on didactic plays and oral tradition

It's all about BLIND faith.[/quote]

Maybe a handful of people were present when Lazarus was raised. The people who saw it started the oral tradition that led to the gospels.

This is getting very repetitive. Let me summarize:
- You like some documents (Pliny the Younger on Vesuvius, I'm guessing).
- You don't like other sources (the gospels) because, uh, you don't like them. That's the best I can do, because all you've really done is wave your hands vaguely at "accurate" classical authors and you haven't really provided convincing arguments.

Got it the first time, got it the 10th time.  Are we done here? I'm done here, this is boring. Have a wonderful weekend.[/quote]
