re: #255 dholmes32

I read Carrier’s post and it appears that the “gospel of Jesus’ wife” appears to have been copied from a Coptic interlinear, line breaks and all. As much as I dislike Carrier for his belief that Jesus himself was mythical and not a real person, I agree with him that this is probably a forgery.

I don’t know why you would dislike Carrier for that, his case is well-argued. Have you even read his two books on that? Now, I myself am not sold on his idea, but he surely has shown that there is no “certainty” about Jesus’ historical existence. As far as I’m concerned, it’s “somewhat probable” that he existed, no more than that.
