What is "studly"?

I don't believe you have done any studying at all. You've betrayed an amazing ignorance of the contents of the Bible and an absolute fear of even reading it for yourself. The extent of your "study" is reading fictional articles written by some semi-educated village atheists and reposted on infidels.org.

You claimed that Paul's writings never mentioned Jesus and Paul didn't know if anyone named Jesus had ever existed, remember? Nobody who has read the NT would be foolish enought to claim that. They'd know better. When pointed out that Paul wrote extensively about Jesus just 20-30 years or so after his life on earth, you naturally claimed that Paul probably probably didn't exist either.

Here I earlier directed you to several academic studies of the subject:

You're scared to death to even read the Bible much less read anything about the Bible.
