I am an orthodox Christian, ask me a question!

[Jon Paul]

Jon, when you can prove that the gospels were written earlier before 70 C.E. (Approx) without saying "They could have predicted this" then we have something to talk about. Scholarly consensus is that they were written around 70 C.E. at the earliest and unless you have substantial and rather good evidence that would destroy this consensus, I will stick with the scholarly opinion.

Sure, many scholars believe it, but there are also some who don't. Anyway, none of this is central, since scholarly consensus is also that there were much earlier written records (Q in some form) and a historical Jesus; the current orthodoxy is two-source hypothesis. Regardless, the discussion has gone off track; apparently you thought I were arguing that if Jesus existed, then his divinity is automatically verified. Not so. I was only arguing for a historical Jesus.
