Why can't Christians Verify Exactly Where Jesus Was Buried?

[Aractus]

Danny, I don't know how I can get this through to you.  You are the one doing the assuming.  You assume that what we now have as so-called authentic pauline epistles are actually representative of the original writings.  Even xtians know this isn't true.

Because there is a structure, style, vocabulary, and subject matter that are Pauline. There's some corruption in the epistles? Yes. But not so much that the original messages in his letters have been substantially compromised.

Again Min, this is you cherry-picking. Textual criticism is the discipline in scholarship which aims to reconstruct the authentic wording of the original autographs, identify the authors, identify the parts that have been altered, and decide upon what it originally said. You then incorrectly assert that because of this we can't know anything about the autographs because it could all be errors and interpolations and tampering done by asshole church fathers in the second century. Thomas Brodie declares all of the Pauline Epistles to be forgeries as well Min, without offering any real evidence to make his case (and yes I'm citing Carrier here).
