You do understand there is a difference between HJ and MJ?? and those with the education in the subject follow HJ first, that is the majority of all modern scholars. I'll follow Bart on this one thank you, mythers hold way to much bias through ignorance for me |

FWIW I regard the phrase ...'the Lord's brother.' in Gal 1:19 to be a marginal explanatory gloss provided by a latter Christian hand, that inadvertently became incorporated into subsequent copies of the text.
In other words the original text would have simply read; Quote:
Jebus's brother James, was not one of the Apostles. -Matt 10:1-5, Mk 3:13-14 & Lk 6:13 But then people wouldn't be able to build their additions unto their magic castles out of horse shit. We really ought to lose the stupid English 'James' moniker. As the name properly would be 'Jacob' just like a hundred other Jacob's, one of the most common of Hebrew names. King 'James' is long dead and we no longer need pander to his vanity. . |

Look at the QUESTIONS. Matthew 13:55 KJV Quote:
Quote:
Galatians 1:1 KJV Quote:
And further, you will NOT ever find in the Canon of the Church the HERESY that Jesus was FATHERED by a human being so you can STOP making your blatant erroneuos statements. You must know that the CANON of the Church MUST reflect the teachings of the Church that Jesus was FATHERED by a Ghost, was God the Creator, God Incarnate, that walked on water, transfigured, resurrected and ascended in a cloud. Please, just go find a history book for your OBSCURE Jesus. The NT Jesus was called the KING of the JEWS. Mark 15:26 KJV Quote:

Most families back then were fairly large due to the extreme mortality rate of children under 5.
yes we know the unknown authors deified a man making claims to pit him against other mortal deities in hellenistic roman times. they could not write him in weaker then the other deities. yes we know there is a difference between mj and HJ |

You DON'T know that unknown authors deified a man when there is NO credible evidence at all to support such a claim.

First, I always such probabilities purely subjective. Second, does that mean you give the fictional Jesus 0%? Or do you equate "myth" as all forms of Jesus not being real? At the moment I see Paul's writings as where christianity starts appearing out of the fog. It could have existed before Paul or it could have come into existence with Paul. There is no way to know. The gospels are functionally irrelevant, as they were developed later and cannot shed light in the fog. Was the notion of Jesus in existence before Paul? Or was the vision he had in Gal 1:11-12 the functional birth of Jesus? Obviously there were earlier messianic ideas, such as those of John the Baptist. Although we have no way to tell, did the pillars in Jerusalem know about Jesus or was their messianism somewhat like John's? Did Paul, as a conservative Jew, harrass nascent christians or Johannine messianists (or something else)? The fog doesn't allow for clarity. History is done with source materials that have earned respect. We have no such source materials for the investigation of Jesus to my knowledge. If you have such sources, you're free to introduce them. |
