Someone stole the body!

Oh yes I understood it alright, it was a bunch of what ifs and maybes and that sort of nonsense. Min I study to find out if my stances are the correct ones, sometimes I find I was wrong and others are confirmed by my studies. You are the one who lives by his biases as a lifestyle, so take the log from your eye bfore you accuse me of having a speck in mine.

You may have understood it, but refused to 'believe' it, because you already know without question that the Bible is the Truth. You're then in a position of having to weigh up the validity of Ehrman's conclusions, versus your own pre-determined conclusions. One set of conclusions has been derived from an objective, dispassionate analysis of the data sources from a historicity point of view. Yours (I am surmising) are a result of religious dogma. Surely you can see that the likelihood of confirmation bias in this scenario is pretty damn high. Problem is, if you're in a larger group of people who are all deluded, you're not likely to find out any time soon.

 You must not read very well, do you not realize that I said Ehrman uses what ifs and if that's and maybe this or that so much he shows he just guessing at best.
