| Mr. C, I've pointed someone to you and to the debate you and romans had. I know jack squat about biblical authorship and authenticity, so I couldn't handle the guy. Anyway, his screen name is fanofazrienoch and you can find our discussion here. I was wondering if you could give me any ammo, 'cuz my armory's all dried up on the topic of history. |

I like how he gets around the controversy of the "testimonium Flavonium" by just using the undisputed parts about Jesus's brother (very good) Hope Mr._C has something to say

Reminder: My username over there is Angry_Beaver, just so you know which discussion I'm talking about. 
I was getting pretty tired at the time and had to get to some homework. Not sure if I'd have been able to make a better rebuttal under better circumstances. |

Unfortunately I can't access that site from work...
I would love to help you though. If there's anything specific you want to post here, please feel free.
Otherwise I'll see what I can do from home.

There really are no "undisputed parts", but I'm not sure why it should matter since Josephus published this about 6 decades after Jesus supposedly died. |

Why not take a swipe at Mithras? Same story, different players.
I believe there are about 16 different "heroes" with the same story line.
| Quote: | Most of the research into Mithraism, a religion with many parallels to Christianity, comes from two writers, Cumont and Ulansey. Some Similarities Between Mithraism and Christianity Among the recorded similarities are:
Virgin birth
Twelve followers
Killing and resurrection
Miracles
Birthdate on December 25
Morality
Mankind's savior
Known as the Light of the world
The Legend of Mithra |
