I told you already: I don't have time to do this all day.

You are merely avoiding the question I asked you as to whether you believe the trial of Peter and John occured after 42 AD.

The fact is it could not have because Caiaphas presides over the trial and Caiaphas left office in 37 AD. Therefore, the trial had to have occured before that. So the trial occured at least 5 years before the Theudas rebellion. The mention of Theudas in Acts 5 is a mistake by Luke.

Answer the following question: If Jesus never existed, as you say, and he was forged into Josephus, as you say, why does he appear in the arabic Josephus? Is it Divine Intervention?

The Arabic version of Josephus is dated about 900 AD. The insertion of the passage about Jesus probably was made sometime in the 300's.

The key point is that Josephus has obviously been tampered with over the years.

This is exactly what I am talking about. Your religion is that of the Antichrist. You are not interested in intellectual honesty, so I see no point in researching your compulsive nitpicks. None of the points you are making are new. People have been attacking Jesus since before they killed him. If your line of questioning is one of intellectual curiosity, your answers are available here. Since your last response is simply another evasion (why would the ARABS have tampered with their text, and if they did, why would they have made ROME the center of Christianity?). I can rightly surmise that were I to continue answering your questions, you would simply try to think of others. Because thats what you do. You hate Christ. Good for you. He loves you anyway, and He still died for you. He has more patience than me however. So I'll be on my way. Have fun with your obsession.
