    i guess you’re not really interested, because in the recording of Shoefoot which i gave, he actually shared about what his ancestors knew.

    You call John a forger. i wonder what ancient recording exists which you would take for credible/when something old would be credible to you.

    in any case;

    The Israelites were instructed in Mozes law to have 2 or 3 witnesses to establish credibility (that’s around 1500 BC):

    Deuteronomy 19:15 One witness shall not rise up against a man for any iniquity, or for any sin, in any sin that he sinneth: at the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses, shall the matter be established

    Even though that may not be water-tight, i don’t think there’s another way to establish credibility in those days.

    I realized that the New-testament part of the Bible is actually composed with that rule in mind to establish credibility. As in

    1. Up to 4 recordings of Jesus timeline from birth to ascension (Matthew, Mark, Luke, John)
    2. At least 3 events recorded with Jesus showing his divinity
    3. At those events Jesus demanded his 3 closest disciples(John,Peter,James) to be present
    4. Those events are recorded in at least 3 of the timelines
    5. The found writings of 2 of those present, are added to the New Testament(John, Peter)

    The above is shown in this picture:

      …John never met Jesus and his account was written decades after the 3 synoptics. There is also question if he even has access to the 3 synoptics or was just working off 1, or even just portions of one, seeing that his timeline does not follow what the 3 synoptics agree on.

      Data over dogma is a really great podcast. I think you would find it interesting.

        I’ve met enough people with personal experiences, both before and after Jesus happened to them, which supports what the New Testament writes about Jesus and the spiritual realm. (so no theory, theological debates etc, but personal experiences).

        So the podcast won’t change my mind, but you can pass me the link to podcast.

          I probably can’t give you a link since you probably don’t use the same RSS/iTunes puller client, but I believe it should be on whatever podcast client you do use.

          Christians in the modern world conceive of God in entirely different ways than the original Christians did, and the host of the podcast is a Christian biblical scholar.

            i don’t have a podcast client. i may find a way to use yours

            i think the generalization doesn’t do justice. back then and now there’s witchcraft, mystics, religious zealots and everything inbetween. ps. For me, being scholar doesn’t tell me anything about someone’s ability to believe the promises of Jesus and living them
