Well, that's a bit problematic when considering the origins of the book, but I think I better dip out of this conversation here and now.

If anyone is curious what resources led me to this conclusion, I would recommend reading "Jesus Before the Gospels" by Bart D. Ehrman. He is much better versed on the subject and also has some great talks online.



I'm curious, have you also read "The Case for Christ" by Lee Stroebel?


I won't deny that religion has been beneficial to my life in certain respects, but at the same time, I would be burying my talents if I gave up my rational skeptical side. I'll add it to my reading list for when I need an alternate opinion.


Bart is a scholar, Lee is an apologist. The two aren't even attempting to make the same case nor are they necessarily speaking to the same type of audience.
