Yuri.

Contribute to what? All you've done is come here and argue strawmen. Bring an issue to the table.

But he is a Jew, that is one inwardly; and the circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, not in the letter.

Romans 2:29

Do you agree that there was a lot of fluidity in the gospels' text in the 2c?

Do you agree that stuff was added to Mt over the years?

Absolutely. But it's minor and irrelevant. As a whole, the gospel is roughly in the same shape as it is now as it was when it was first penned. There's nothing either in the text or by archaeological evidence that says otherwise.

And how do you know all that?

Lots of stuff says otherwise. Such as Justin Martyr.

Looks like the gang war in Toronto late last year will be small potatoes compared to the fireworks that are gonna fly when Chris Weimer moves there . Is Toronto big enough for Yuri and Chris ?

Fireworks about what?

Can someone explain to me what this 'debate' is all about?

Yuri.

Several factors including stylistic analysis, overall themes, and a consistent narrative - all evidence for a roughly complete gospel.

Except you seem unable to actually provide this "stuff" that says otherwise. Come on, Yuri, you're so adamant you have the answer on this - where's the proof?
