Why do people believe religious texts?
#32
RE: Why do people believe religious texts?
We do not have any "original" Greek manuscripts. All we have are copies of copies of copies all of which have been shown by scholars such as Bart Ehrman to have loads of errors, edits and later additions.

Josephus was a 4th century forgery. Not a single xtian writer prior to that famed liar, Eusebius, makes reference to it. The third-century xtian apologist, Origen, made specific reference to Book XVIII of Antiquities of the Jews and still did not make reference to this piece of bullshit.

I see you gave up on Caesar real fast.


BTW, what did Herod write?
