2. The voice from heaven in Mark at the Baptism does not say the same thing as in the others.
3. In Matthew he says "Whoever is not with me is against me", in Mark it's CHANGED to "Whoever is not against us is for us" (doh ... thus missing totally the meaning of the saying).
4. In Mark, the entire ministry (if you keep track of the "immediatelys" ... last a few months. From fall to the next spring (Passover). Less than 1 year.
5. In the trial in Mark, Jesus says almost nothing, in John he gives LONG speeches. (Obviously they just made these up).
6. What they saw when arriving at the tomb is different in each gospel.
They are "instructions" alright. How to LIE and make up crap to support your new cult.
But you're missing the point! The point is that they're at least passably similar! Details don't matter! Nobody assesses truth based on consistency of details! </sarcasm>
Also, 50 million people were eyewitnesses to all these contradictory details. According to my sacred book.
