You have ALREADY confirmed many times that Canonical Gospels cannot be historically reliable with respect to Jesus.

Your confirmation that some statements in the Canonical Gospels cannot be literally accurate destroys all hope of recovering an HJ from the Gospelsl.

Myth fables ARE NOT historically accurate.

The Gospels are COMPATIBLE with Myth Fables.

The Myth Jesus theory is INTACT once the Canonical Gospels cannot be historically accurate with respect to Jesus.

I have not been using the expression 'historically reliable'. That's your term, and you have not explained what you mean by it in this context.

You have also not explained what you mean, in this context, by the terms 'recovering an HJ', 'myth fables', and 'Myth Jesus theory'.

Such as?
Please provide some specific examples of the texts and verses that you think -might be- accurate reports of events that actually took place.
Designate exactly which texts it is, that form the basis of your support for a HJ.

Without this you are only suppling an empty generalization with no discernible substance.

This thread is caught in an endless loop of assertions followed by vaguely worded challenges.

The moderator team has agreed that it is time to put it out of its misery.

If you have a real topic to discuss, please start a new thread.
