Bart Ehrman’s on Did Jesus Exist?
In the next few posts we will have a Q and A time with Professor Bart Ehrman about his new Harper book, Did Jesus Exist? which (not surprisingly) has sparked considerable interest. A special thanks to Bart for taking considerable time to answer the questions I sent him. I came across this article today and thought about this forum. Peace out! Star

The enduring problem in this forum is that requests to be shown the evidence for an historical Jesus boil down to Paul's mention of James, and that's 100% of it. The rest is merely argument from authority - the insistence that experts think so. That's useless unless we're told WHY experts think so and given the chance to form an opinion. An Ehrman interview on YouTube on the subject had him mentioning James and insisting that everyone in the game thinks an historical Jesus existed - which sounds ominously familiar. Part 1 of the interviews is merely outline. No evidence is discussed. |
