[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]John, the author of the gospel of that name never met Jesus. That assertion made here is unsupported. None of the writers of the gospels or Paul ever met Jesus.[/quote]

However, Paul met Jesus' brother, an eyewitness.[/quote]

I guess that's true. I can't dispute that. There is no gospel of James though. [/quote]

And neither of them are independent/unbiased sources. [/quote]

We have those too.[/quote]

There are no independent eyewitnesses. [/quote]

Other than Jesus' brother and the apostles?[/quote]

Keyword: independent

And claiming supernatural events lowers confidence in a source. [/quote]

So if Jesus' brother, James, told you the sky was blue, you would have some doubts? All observers are biased. To claim that there are special independent observers of history is ludicrous. [/quote]

Do we even know he was a brother? Not the cousin?

The early Christian evangelists are obviously biased.  :roll:
