The Historical Christ

[Minimalist]

This particular fundie claimed to have a PH. D. in "archaeology." As it turned out, what he had done was go to some xtian diploma mill and pay the fee. He may as well have gotten his "degree" out of a cereal box.

I have a PhD and I have few doubts it is just as worthless

Kyu

However, I'm sure you had to do more than write a check to get it.

There is so much contradiction in just those two stories that it's rediculous to believe that someone with half a brain could believe them.

The previously mentioned Bart Ehrman (who was a fundie until he started reading that shit closely) has noted that most xtians combine what are 4 separate stories into something he calls the gospel of Matthewmarklukeandjohn. Cramming it all together into a veritable holy stew obscures the meanings that the authors were trying to convey.
