[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Atheist activist and Christ mythicist Richard Carrier criticized her use of the inscriptions at Luxor to make the claim that the story of Jesus' birth was inspired by the Luxor story of the birth of Horus.[22] Theologian and Christ-mythicist Robert M. Price also criticized Murdock's first book,[23] while promoting her Suns of God: Krishna, Buddha and Christ Unveiled in The Pre-Nicene New Testament: Fifty-Four Formative Texts,[24] and writing the foreword to her Who Was Jesus?: Fingerprints of the Christ.[6]

Her work has also been criticized by New Testament scholar Bart D. Ehrman, who, in his Did Jesus Exist?: The Historical Argument for Jesus of Nazareth calls Murdock's The Christ Conspiracy "the breathless conspirator's dream". He says "all of Acharya's major points are in fact wrong" and her book "is filled with so many factual errors and outlandish assertions that it is hard to believe the author is serious". Taking her as representative of some other writers about the Christ myth theory, he continues "Mythicists of this ilk should not be surprised that their views are not taken seriously by real scholars, mentioned by experts in the field, or even read by them".[25]

Both Bart and Carrier criticize calendar lady you buffoon.[/quote]

Your name calling reflects badly on you and does your position no favors.

But if you are embracing Ehrmann and Carrier, then we really have no disagreement, do we?[/quote]
