Correct typos of your own previous talk posts edit

Allocutus, it is acceptable to copyedit/correct typos of your own previous talk posts.

  • I usually concatenate &&+5 tildes (~~~~~) to my previous signature to log a significant copyedit

Scholars who have written a defense for the historicity of Jesus edit

Please see this recently archived thread:

--2db (talk) 03:44, 4 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

Yes, thank you for that, I'm much indebted.
It seems very clear that very few scholars and historians have ever even addressed the issue!

And in fact it seems no historians have at all, as all these people referred to are Bible Scholars, educated at Christian institutions (mostly seminaries) and employed in a field where the objective is to determine who the "real" Jesus was, not whether he existed. No Jesus=no NT scholarship to speak of.

Per David Fitzgerald, It is possible that a scholar may be contractually obliged to publicly reject Jesus ahistoricity theory. Cf. [Fitzgerald, David (2017). “Myths of Mythicism – Bias Cut”. Jesus: Mything in Action. 1. CreateSpace. p. 62. ISBN 978-1-5428-5888-5.]
IMO, a position that requires public condemnation of such a scholar.

Gospel of Mark (intertextuality) edit

FYI: I recently made a new article:

Currently it is not linked to any other article: Pages that link to "Gospel of Mark (intertextuality)"
I suspect it will be challenged when linkage does occur.
