Bart Ehrman (and others) show evidence that the texts of the Bible have been changed over the years.Then why don't you quote his evidence? I can't speak for Ehrman specifically, but Atwill certainly pulls a fast one time and time again citing his own fabrications as evidence for his position. It's like an extremist conspiracy theory. What he pulls out of his arse he presents to atheists as some brand new fundamental understanding of the origin of Christianity - one man's shit is another man's truth!
Define "texts of the Bible" that you are claiming have been "changed over the years", and while you're at it define "change" in the context you're applying it. If by change you mean small insignificant changes in spelling or wording (for instance "Christ Jesus" becomes "Jesus Christ" and vice-versa in certain places), then I'm not interested in that. If by change you mean systematic alteration to first century texts for the purpose of an outside agenda, then produce some evidence already will you?
