Glad to see the "Superboy" comic that Robert M. Price wrote about in Jesus is Dead.

I don’t like this logic. The whole argument is a case of special pleading. This particular anonymous atheist detractor seems to lack some basic knowledge about textual criticism, particularly how long we’ve had copies of the manuscripts (at least 1600 years–not 1000 years).
How is it logical to consider that manuscripts from the 4th century are going to save the historicists bacon?

Hi James the Least,

I don't have that book. What did Dr. Price say about it?

Greetings Philosopher Jay,

Christ a Fiction (1997) by Robert M. Price in the infidels library may provide the same info.

Seems to be a few pages here.

Keep well.
