I think he is a Christian but he is a damn fine historian. I actually read his book thinking that it gave a perfectly reasonable explanation for the birth of Christianity without appealing to any funny business.Thanks, I added that to my wish list. The only book I have by Ehrman is "Lost Christianities", but his writing style is very lively and readable. I don't know if Ehrman's knowledge in the field matches his popularity with readers. I like him.
