Well, help me "see the light" GC? The three categories add to 100% for each year; what does the poll, from your perspective, mean?
The first and third are the same thing, if you add them together you have 71%. There are in actuality only two categories .

Mark and Luke are on board with Friday, and that's well and good too, but Friday does not equal Thursday, so God in His infinite Plan and majesty wants His believers to believe in a Friday crucifixion too. I'm thinking a believer need not question His plan, and just stick with believing it, since Scripture offers no other choice. Indeed.
And to be clear, I'm even spotting the believers here a PASS (out of my generosity!!) for not rubbing their noses also insisting on a THIRD crucifixion on Wednesday since Matthew invoked Jonah's 72 hour stay inside a whale as an harbinger of Jesus staying dead, dead, dead for 72 hours also, and that GROSSLY mungs up a Friday crucifixion (other than God inspiring those accounts too. And a case could be made that in honor of the Holy Trinity, Jesus very well could have been crucified THREE physical times, Ash Wednesday, Maundy Thursday, AND Friday.)
I've almost convinced myself there, in fact, that a triple could very well indeed be ordained as the ultimate revelation of the Holy Magnificence of the Trinity.
Praise the TRINITY !!!
So, sorry believers, but you're not believing very well there if you only believe Jesus was nailed up once. The Lord God Almighty has ordained belief in MULTIPLE (lest Holy Scripture be questioned!) crucifixions, and the only REAL question is whether or not Jesus was crucified twice, or THREE times.
The single crucifixion tale is as dead as the tree(s) Jesus crosses were made from.
That's a load of crock and nothing more. John has Jesus crucified on Friday, so this puts an end to your argument, period.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
