The Trilemma
#13
RE: The Trilemma
In conclusion:

Here's the breakdown of the Trilemma:

1. Start with the desired conclusion
2. Assume Jesus really existed
3. Assume that we have infallible records of this person., his life and what he claimed
4. Speculate two alternatives: liar and lunatic
5. Strawman the hell out of those alternatives (reducto ad absurdum)
6. Arrive at desired conclusion
7. Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain
