Do you bother to think before you speak? The majority of historians agree that Jesus existed, so why would I have to disprove a fringe theorist?

If I didn't, then I would only be following your example, Huggy. What in Jesus' name does that have to do with your complaint that Carrier wasn't interested in the historicity of Jesus until someone paid him?

The "majority of historians" don't agree on shit..anyway. Which jesus? There are many. None of them is the jesus the huggster thinks existed, or the jesus of magic book... that's just something that duplicitous christers say because they have nothing else -to- say.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

When a person argues with name calling, they have no argument.
1+1= You idiot (Nope, wrong answer)
The capitol of Texas = You're a Nutjob Reject (Nope, wrong again)
No matter what you try, you'll never get the right answer until you look at what we know is true and how it applies to the world around us.

Do not interfere in a private quarrel. Dripshit and I have been at this for years and he has never gotten any better.
And he never will.

Teamwork makes the dream work. If someone doesn't meet your standards, work with them and you'll probably both accomplish more.

If you beat your head into a wall for years will you keep doing it in the hope that the wall will soften? Dripshit does not want to face the reality that he has been conned. It is a common failing of believers.

Failing is believing in nothing and quitting. If I don't believe in umbrellas, I'll end up with soaked hair while standing in a puddle, while everybody is dancing around me. If I start with a cheap umbrella that leaks, then I won't get as wet, but next time I'll show up with a better umbrella when it rains. My other option is to do nothing and end up soaked every time it rains. I can say I like it, but nobody will believe me. And such is the saying, "what we sow is what we reap." If we believe in nothing, nobody will believe in us.

Every one is ignoring the actual comment, the ten year pregnancy. It's not possible, why, because Jesus was born before Herod died and that was 4BC, Jesus was born in 6BC and was taken to Egypt before Herod died and returned to Judea soon after Herod died. It doesn't matter which Herod was ruling at the time it only matters that the same Herod was referenced in the story of Jesus birth and first couple of years. Jesus was born nine months after the Holy conception, if He was not then the rest of His life and history would not mesh which it does.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

I was speaking to Minimalists disingenuity, ever since from before I joined this site, Minimalist has kept a tight grip on Bart Ehrman's ball-sack...

I think you get it...
In case you didn't know, Minimalist doesn't believe that a historical Jesus, the basis of Christianity ever existed, the problem is that Ehrman DOES believe he existed, so Min can't use his beloved Ehrman to debunk Jesus, he has to find someone that agrees with his narrative.
As far as Richard Carrier goes, you'd be naive to believe that a guy who was basically begging for money on his blog, and asking for patreon donations would be completely objective when being funded by special interest groups, when you cannot find an example of that anywhere else, be it Politics or Religion.
