There is more historic evidence for the Gospels INCLUDING John, than for other ancient texts that you accept as valid. They pass all the tests of authenticity.

Not according to this group of scholars from Catholic, Protestant, and Jewish traditions. And not according to some other Biblical experts such as George Lamsa, who found numerous mistranslations.

For two thousand years there have been individuals and groups who have tried to discredit the validity of Scripture.

They have ALWAYS failed.

But I'm sure Pippin didn't start this thread for the purpose of this discussion, so rather than hijack it, I will leave it at what I have already said.

The Gospels are historically valid documents. Whether you believe them or not, is your choice.

So James Randi is unbelievable because he tries to debunk psychics, but the Jesus Seminar is reliable because it tries to debunk the Bible?
