Whoops, I missed out a word there. I meant Christian biblical scholars, I shall add that in, thank you.
I will happily listen to a Christian biblical scholar, and if they have sound arguments backed with evidence, I'll believe them like any other. I'm just noting the rather absurd nature of studying something you already assume must be true. So if I haven't actually read their argument in detail, I'm going to be suspicious about it. But agreed, anyone can be biased. So it comes down to the individual arguments, of which I'm happy to listen to from anybody.
