re: #169 Anti-Pope of Darwinism
You don’t remember Josephus? Strange. Also, Christian sources are also evidence.
Sorry, I meant to say contemporary non-christian sources. Once the ‘story’ is out we can expect all kinds of ‘vindications’ from later sources. There are people who believe the Holy Grail is a historical item.
I wouldn’t dsmiss christian sources altogether as evidence but at the same time there’s no point denying that it can be problematic; I certainly don’t see anything to suggest that arguing about it’s value is akin to creationist style denial of reality.
