Does Jesus Mythicism give atheism a bad name?

And as I pointed out to you, what I cited above was Level I evidence. The only thing that can discredit it is another Level I study that has a contradictory finding (which is not usually likely), or if you can show there is a high risk of bias in the review. And even then there are dozens more of them in Pubmed, so don't be disingenuous and try to claim that every single systematic review written by different researchers, accepted into academic Journals, entered into the MEDLINE database are not valid. FYI, two of the studies I cited above are highly influential (top 5% of reviews), which you would have know had you checked before claiming that they're BS. You're not entitled to your own truth Rhythm.

Your post brings me nicely back to my point. Why should you expect Christians to make evidence-based decisions if you are not willing to do the same?

The WIN/Gallup End of Year Survey 2013 found the US was perceived to be the greatest threat to world peace by a huge margin, with 24% of respondents fearful of the US followed by: 8% for Pakistan, and 6% for China. This was followed by 5% each for: Afghanistan, Iran, Israel, North Korea. -LINK


"That's disgusting. There were clean athletes out there that have had their whole careers ruined by people like Lance Armstrong who just bended thoughts to fit their circumstances. He didn't look up cheating because he wanted to stop, he wanted to justify what he was doing and to keep that continuing on." - Nicole Cooke
