It's simple -- the New Testament is unreliable, unhistorical, full of myth and legend, contradictory, and was changed and embellished over time.

It seems that I mistakenly assumed, that you where talking about things in context to the discussion.  However, if you would like to support any of that, feel free.   I'm particularly curious about the changed and embellished part.   It seems the evidence shows that the scripture has been remarkably well preserved, with only a few things that we know about that have crept into the later manuscripts.  However, that should probably be another thread. 

If you are still not going to answer the question of why and give reasons and evidence for you conclusions, however don't bother.
