Where did the Jesus myth come from?

[Tea Earl Grey Hot]

Oh this is going to be so painful...

Indeed. Here we go again.

It is if you think you proven your opponent wrong simply by saying the majority disagrees, which is what you and your buddy did...

Show me where I said...Jesus mythers are wrong SOLELY by virtue of the fact that they are in the minority.

Please be sure to use "quotation marks".

Can ya do that for me?

You made a claim. Now prove it. (Hint - use evidence)

Here's what Atom (whom you defended) said that really set me off:

I think I'm on more solid ground appealing to a near unanimity of peer reviewed academic scholars on the testimony of Bart Ehrman as a hostile witness than you are citing yourself as your own authority.

Another quote of Atom

Making the case for Jesus' historical existence is an involved topic that starts with the presentation of data supported by the academic consensus. If the significance or existence of the academic consensus on all such data is denied, there is no point in presenting more such data.

You then replied to Atom's quote about standing on solid ground with this " " and then compared mythicist to other nutty (my opinion) groups:

"Jesus mythers and holocaust deniers and fake moon landing folk are interesting and quaint."

You then said that people who go against the majority are acting "illogically" because they're going against the majority:

In fact, if 99% of experts on a given subject agreed, then ignoring that fact would make YOU the person acting illogically for rejecting their expertise.

That's an appeal to majority fallacy right there. You would be acting "illogically" because you went against the majority. You said it.
