Debate with a Christian

[*Deidre*]

Even as a Christian, I never looked at the NT as a reliable bio of Jesus. So, I don't care for this topic.

You are wrong. And you should care. If it is shown that they are reliable then your "theory" that the early church fathers fabricated a bunch of lies is blown clear out of the water.

What "church fathers" are you referring to anyway?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bible

Taken from that link:
Scholars have attempted to reconstruct something of the history of the oral traditions behind the Gospels, but the results have not been too encouraging. The period of transmission is short: less than 40 years passed between the death of Jesus and the writing of Mark's Gospel. This means that there was little time for oral traditions to assume fixed form.

Good luck using the Bible to prove anything, discipulus. But, maybe you could send your findings to the 'scholars' who haven't been able to manage what you are claiming is so easy to do.

Is this the debate thread? lol

I do not need to prove Jesus existed at all. Jesus' existence is as axiomatic as that of Tiberius Caesar or any other notable figure of ancient history.

Please cite your sources. Or it's just hearsay. Do you know how to debate? I should have asked that several pages back before we started all this. lol

Where have you been living Deidre? The moon? Mars?

I'm sent from heaven........................
