Greg over the years has been 100% consistent in representing his beliefs and while you may strongly disagree with him you offer no alternative for a belief system which appears to be innate for humans to possess. Instead you complain that people evolved from monkeys and can't know anything with certainty. How about providing an alternative instead of simply attacking others.

"You've stated this notion twice now, about the "vast majority of historians" believing in the biblical Jesus and his supernaturality, and cite not ONE SINGLE source for your laughable taunt." ONLY Christians believe that the "Gospel Jesus" existed. The vast majority of people (and scholars) are NOT Christians. In fairness, however...the vast majority of people are not noticeably less ignorant. There are far more ignorant beliefs than Christianity. They will continue to fight for "Holy" places...

Try to tone down the "LIAR LIAR PANTS ON FIRE" rhetoric. It only make s you look juvenile. Read over your post before submitting it and it may save you some embarrassment in the future. I have cited at least a couple of current, credible, scholars, who's expertise lies specifically in the area of ancient history. It is on their assertions that I have based my opinion. There is a great difference between recognizing Jesus was a historical person and You on the other hand, have cited none that I can think of. I would think that if your position was so strong you could simply quote a few of the majority that you claim and that would settle it but you have not. Do you know any ancient historians that are still alive and support your position?
