The Big Debate -- Price versus Ehrman

[vorlon13]

The historical evidence is that Jesus of Nazareth was a Jewish apocalyptic prophet, who likely had epilepsy, schizophrenia or some other disorder, perhaps, a lesion on his brain.  He started out in northern Galilee, where he was born, but after awhile, his friends and followers encouraged him to take his "message" to Jerusalem.  The end came quickly for him; a short time after his arrival, there was an altercation in the Temple, and he was arrested by the Romans.  After a short hearing and consultation with the Jewish authorities, the Romans executed him.  Perhaps, or perhaps, not, the Jewish leaders allowed a burial as an appeasement to some of his distraught followers, which the Roman authorities were completely indifferent to.

The rest is history...

Don't forget the zombie part
