Actually I learned about “Q” in bible school when I attended Evangel College (now Evangel University) back in the 1970s. It was standard materiel in the New Testament Literature course.

Nice to know that Wikipedia has an article on that. I will stop by to see it some day.

The professors at Evangel College didn’t have a problem with the Q hypothesis, but then, they were religious AND educated.

As a former attendee of Evangel myself, I wasn’t too impressed with them.

You seem to have had a very liberal Bible instructor, because the “Q” you reference is but the figment of a liberal leftists mind.

Claiming you learned something about the Scriptures from a College instructor at the place you mention is like Obama claiming he went to a divinity school and thus knows more about the Scriptures than me.

After all Obama supposedly attended Harvard, and Harvard was the first nondenominational divinity school in America.

It never ceases to amaze me when a college student claims to know more about the Christian faith then even Billy Graham because a liberal college professor told them something no Christian Bible Scholar has ever thought of in the whole 2000 years of Christian history.

Remember, these are the same professors who think capitalism is the reason we have high taxes and that mankind is responsible for global warming and Reagan’s trickle down economic policy is what has destroyed this country.

Yet you want to take their word for something that they said about a religion they despise, or have such a liberal bent that they think Jesus would have condoned homosexuality and gay marriage.

So tell me, you really are an undercover spy from the DU, right?

I mean come on, go ahead and disagree with the interpretation of the message all you wish, but to use arguments that only a liberal leftists would claim are true only makes you look like those environmentalist wackos who build tree houses in redwood trees named Luna.

Teaching a popular liberal notion doesn't make it true, and somehow leading you to believe this is true: To me the paradox of Jesus is that noone recognizes that the prophecies were available for forgers to create a pretend Jesus, long after his putative life, and then pretend that their ability to reference various prophecies was somehow evidence of the reality of their scam.
makes both you and the college incredibly suspect of total ignorance.

Q is a movie character, or a hypothesis as intelligent as global warming. Now, I notice you dodged the best evidence against "Q" in your last post, anyone else notice that? Well here it is, read it, and I await your explanation how any person can read this and believe that the hypothesis of "Q" is correct: Many have undertaken to draw up an account of the things that have been fulfilled among us, just as they were handed down to us by those who from the first were eyewitnesses and servants of the word. Therefore, since I myself have carefully investigated everything from the beginning, it seemed good also to me to write an orderly account for you, most excellent Theophilus, so that you may know the certainty of the things you have been taught.

Like I said, it's like believing global warming is real, or that socialism works. Congrats on your sad intellectual confusion.
