Great. Now we can all agree that what you obsessively copy and paste is just "secondary evidence".

So what? You're an idiot, sorry. Watch the Bart Ehrman video somebody else posted. [/quote]

My entire point is that we only have secondary evidence. Your buddy, Bart, doesn't claim otherwise.

“The reason for thinking Jesus existed is because He is abundantly attested in early sources, that’s why. I give the details in my book. Early and INDEPENDENT sources indicate that Jesus certainly existed; one author we know about knew Jesus’ brother, and knew Jesus’ closest disciple, Peter. He’s an EYEWITNESS to both Jesus’ closest disciple and his brother.”

The way you make Bart your enemy and discount his vast and impressive scholarship and amazing academic track record, along w/ his atheism, because he knows what he’s talking about, indicates you are a person who cannot be too much into “evidence” and “truth.” You make things personal and weird. [/quote]

Bart's not my enemy. He's just a NT scholar who interpreted secondary sources. Nothing more, nothing less. Someone on this thread is really obsessed with him.

If you think he has "vast and impressive scholarship and amazing academic track record" then you also follow his position about Jesus' divinity?

DP. Stop trying to derail into divinity, it makes you look desperate.

Bart is so quotable because he's published a book on the subject and is such a great self-promoter.

Bart points out that not one single scholar argues Jesus didn't exist. You're not a scholar. You can sit down now.

I'm not arguing he didn't exist.

And I haven't been the PP posting about divinity. Just pointing out the hypocrisy in really being impressed with his scholarship and track record, but then cherry picking his positions.
