I don't have to repeat the line "the consensus of scholars" in these convos, so it's not all that worrisome to me. If you don't actually agree with the consensus of scholars, then I suppose we can just remind you of that everytime you repeat the mantra, right?
I don't know what to tell you, as far as the historicity of christ is concerned, all of the potential historical jesus are "atheistic".
None of them posit, real godman, really true..because then the "history" game would be up, huh? Similarly, none of them certify the sectarian claims to timelines and composition..because, here again the "history" game would be up. Regardless of whichever historical jesus was the real jesus, if any, the composition of the thing you think is a magic book just doesn't have the past that your faith demands it must.
