"I have not encountered any modern scholarship which agrees with you."

That's because your idea of scholarship is "evilbible.com" and the Jesus Seminar; what a joke! These sources make ice dance judging look like a science.

<<<"Paul did many of the same miracles that Jesus did">>>

I see you have no answer to this but to ignore the fact that it completely destroys your argument that Paul did not know anything about Jesus or His miracles.

"You don't have to shout with caps and bolding "

"In that case, he cannot corroborate any of the gospel stories.....Because BEFORE the crucifixion is WHEN Jesus lived and WHEN he might have had opportunity to KNOW Him personally."

"I use bolding to emphasize and to note matters of importance."

After pleading for a return to mature discussion ("Let us not be childish, please.") the use was clearly condescending and just plain rude.

"Christianity is no more "historical" than any other religion."

That is an ignorant statement.
