Re: The best case for Jesus's historicity: Mark Craig

The rules for the verification of Jesus' historicity are the exception to how historians verify historical persons and events. False. The methods used applies to almost all history from this time period where there is less textual evidence. It's basically a mirror image of the claim that mythicists...

Re: sentenced to death for atheism’

You are vilifying people purely by a category I am vilifying a primitive religion that refuses reason and logic that employs the most fanaticism and fundamentalism out of any current religious faith.

Re: Mark Wrote for Highly Educated People

But what is the content of this 'tradition' outside of the written gospel? It's the gospel that saves, nothing else. I almost think the idea of Paul 'preaching an unwritten gospel' is artificially designed to get around this difficulty. 'Christianity' begins as 'high Christianity' and ends as 'high...

Paul was very close to said events

People who were part of a Marcan community had the possibility to be a witness and refute it.
