The entire account of multiple trials in front of Jewish authorities and Pontius Pilates eventually "washing his hands" is historically absurd...The "information" of which you speak is not true. It is a deliberate reflection of the personal anti-Semitism of the authors of the Gospels, and it is designed for specific rhetorical purposes.

No this was not your previous position. You knew I believed the gospel account as true, and were basing your argument upon what I had accepted. This you stated clearly.

Now in order to rationalize your world view as infallible (at least compared to a contemptible superstitious world view like mine...or the Jewish world view for that matter) you now have asserted a premise that we clearly did not agree to. And now you are angry and frustrated that anyone would dare disagree with this conspiracy theory of yours.

And nothing has changed. I always knew you believed that the gospel account was true. That is how I knew it was the source of your personal portrayal of the Jews as being responsible for the death of Christ. Something you still resist admitting.

But I certainly never said that I believed it, and now you know both that I do not and whyI do not. I am not certain why that upsets you.

What are you on about?

Need I point out that I am not the one of us claiming access to infallibility. That is entirely the your franchise. And the words "contemptible superstition" has never before been a product of my keyboard.

Who did you say you were arguing with? Exactly?
