Oopsie Daisie.
Turns out
Jesus didn't exist after all, because it took a while for the Gospel stories to be written down.
I wonder if those who don't believe the accuracy of documents that had origins in oral history are willing to apply this standard to any other sort of anthropological study. It's a new approach to sociology! "That's an oral tradition, not written down within the five years allowable. No facts may be contained therein. Sorry!"
And what's this about the Gospel of Mark being the sole source for the other three gospels? This is very sloppy: I could have done better myself. Actually, I'll be handling all the psuedo-scholarly Christianity "debunking" around here from now on. ("Jesus never existed! My imaginary friend Binker told me so.")

By that same token, lots of historical people did not exist. I could not find one mention of Buddha or Mohammad in any Roman historical accounts of the day.
The Gospels did survive and any other prior historical accounts didn't. Not surprising since there was a persecution going on.
The "God Project" at Loyola University in Chicago is the center of inter-faith 'scholarship' in these matters. They say the Last Supper never happened. Why? Did they find records indicating that Jesus as already in custody on Thursday? No. They say "does Jesus look like the kind of guy that would throw a dinner party?" You can't argue with scholarship like that.

Silly human(ist)s. They refute themselves.

I loved the fact that in the clip they asked people how the Gospel was spread initially, and got two answers: the Holy Spirit, and "word of mouth."
The question was vague, so the answers were a little vague. They did not, for example, have the balls to ask Christians: "when do you think the first written Gospel was composed?" It was perfectly clear that the Christians in the clips knew the Gospel initially spread as oral history.
Was any device ever so transparent?
