<<To repeat for the empth time, the New Testament is a contemporary
historical doucment containing the eyewitness accounts of men and women
who actually saw and heard the life, death and Resurrection of Jesus.>>

This is simply not true, Emile, just as it is not true that thousands of people witnessed his death. Much of what happened was intended to be allegorical, and much was embellished over time, and much was misunderstood because of the problems of translation. It is valid for you to say that this is the document which is the basis of your belief system, but it is not valid to claim that everything in the Bible is true, or actually happened.
