No you posted a bullshit piece of literal salve from the scorching Carrier gave you .And i have already read articles on your shitty little site ages ago i needed a good laugh and you did not disappoint .You have been repeating the same Anti Mythicism nonsense forever. Give it up dude your the Michael Behe of Anti Mythicism .
"Weak sauce articles .... literary masturbation .... bullshit piece .... your shitty little site .... Anti Mythicism nonsense"
All asserted without any supporting argument or engagement with anything I've actually said. It seems this level of gassy flatulence is about all we're going to get from you. So, another mighty blow is struck for "rationalism" ...
Is there anyone here actually capable of detailed discussion based on the relevant source material? Or just coherent sentences?

No other historians use it the way he does. What does that tell you? Bayes' Theorem only works if you have objective, real world data to plug into it. It can't be used to assess whether something happened in the past by giving your prior qualitative assessments of likelihood a number and then putting that into the Theorem. That tells you nothing. It's all smoke and mirrors that no-one except Carrier and his peanut gallery of clueless fanboys takes seriously.
