Also, you may note;  I did explain why in another post, as I have before with Min.
No the thing i'm adressing was spot on 

No you really didn't you just made a bunch of arrogant claims about Carrier all of which are in error . and Min wiped the floor with you every time thus far you attempts here have failed you as well

The only claim I made I made about Carrier was that his historical peers, don't have much respect for him.  I thought that this was fairly well known (it seems that Ehrman wants nothing to do with him).  But if you would like to dispute that, be my guest.    However I think the more important issue is the bad logic.  We have been over the argument from silence a number of times.   It can be valid, but usually from mythicists, it is not.  Then there is the assumption that Paul wrote to tell the Romans the Gospel.   This is not a Gospel, hence it is normally found in the section labeled as "Epistles".   There was already a church in Rome, who knew the Gospel, and where believers.  There is a lot of bad logic in this though.   There is also the argument from silence, where just because someone does not say something, it doesn't follow that mythiciists can make up whatever they want to fill the gap. 

I'm happy to discuss, if you have some particular point that you think makes a logical case from this argument though.
It is said that an argument is what convinces reasonable men and a proof is what it takes to convince even an unreasonable man.  - Alexander Vilenkin
