Historian explains why Jesus ''mythers'' aren't taken seriously by most Historians

And thats fine.  Then they can be analyzed for accuracy ... except for the fact that the myth has overtaken the man to the extent that seventeen hundred years of editing has occurred.

I'm fine with the idea of a historical Jesus. If there was really a Jesus who preached and garnered a following, it doesn't change the fact that the Gospels aren't evidence of his existence, because they aren't unbiased history.  They are religious polemic, and as such, untrustworthy as sources.
