Re: A Mark - Matthew Overlap

And how common are the events you describe, Charles? How common is the flow of time? How common are individual events? You need to be V-E-R-Y careful here. What does it mean? Your question is Vacuous. Where are your texts? Demonstrate verbatim agreement, argue for order, plagiarism. You know throug...

Re: How do we know X existed?

No mainstream nonbiblical scholar, and none of those I quoted in the earlier post, uses such a method to establish the historical existence of a person who is then studied in research. OK, but we have a "$100 bill lying on the sidewalk" problem. If the people you quoted really had methods...

Re: In Paul --- William, O’my that must be an interpolation, Walker

3. How can there be criteria for interpolations without criteria of authenticity? The two go hand-in-hand. And if you have critieria of authenticity, what are they? I entirely disagree. Any story can be edited, it only needs to be believed to be important enough. Look at how Russia and Ukraine spin...
