The Historical Reliability of the New Testament

Perhaps you can show it to me?  Whenever I ask xtians all I get is a pile of pious bullshit from the bible and that's worthless.

The proto-orthodox seem to have been shaken to their core by the work of Marcion.  Here's Irenaeus on the subject.

http://www.earlychurchtexts.com/public/i...arcion.htm

Note how Marcion is accused of editing the work of "paul" and the so-called gospels.  Except, until Marcion, there was no canon,  He was the first.  And he scared the shit out of the proto-orthodox with it.




Feel free to join in, Nestor....if you have anything relevant to add.

I was thinking about the First Century Roman emperors, such as Claudius.  I believe he has a historical record with the Christians as well as a Biblical one.  And I was also thinking about the catacombs but their involvement with Christian burials may start around the Third Century.  

Anyway, your Greek link is written in modern Greek so it's a fraud. That also blows Nestor's link out of the water for the same reason.
