The point is the blatant contradiction. You endorse a revisionist historical theory at the beginning of the post, then at the end of the post you say you don't do that. THere were other problems in the post, but that just stuck out like a sore thumb.
I don't think that you can point to any New Testament scholar who regards the "500" as being historical, other than the right-wing evangelicals.
