Because i have no intention of rewarding your attempts to create a strawman. Read, (carefully for a change) what Ehrman wrote in the original passage and then understand that all you did was introduce a lot of horseshit apologetics into it which HE DID NOT SAY. You said it....and that frankly counts for shit.
He merely pointed out that "john" places the cleaning of the temple at the beginning of the ministry while all the others place it at the end.
Other than whine you have totally failed to explain the discrepancy which is, oddly, what Ehrman predicts from people like you based on his long experience teaching this shit.
