| padib said: Okay well you do realize that's a huge counter-claim - as huge as my initial one :P So, where do we start? Do we start? Who will be right? I mean I've read and reread the bible, what part? I've taken some theology, my sister graduated in theology, she's now off to be a teacher. I don't know what would be the biggest counter-point to you? My biggest point is the cohesion of the gospels between each other, and the cohesion of the gospels with passages in the old testament. I've read an archeological book on the times of abraham, and watch some documentaries on the parting of the read sea. I followed a lecture on the burial of Jesus. I'm fairly convinced, maybe you could provide some material you trust that I could read. At least then I could be more informed of a counter-view and form a more educated opinion. I'll try to supply the sources of what I believe to be true. |
The cohesion of the gospels tells is pretty irrelevant, considering they were written by people who knew eachtother, and were fanatics. They're also not historical documents, and they're full of mythological elements. They really prove nothing.
