As for the top of the thread regarding historical accuracy, did nobody think it possible that three written accounts of the same alleged event could match if they were written after one another? It's much like me writing The Great Gatsby verbatim and saying I must be divinely inspired because it matched the original account, when I simply read the original to seem inspired an consistent.

You assert that I'm using a double standard yet do not substantiate your point. You are obviously wedded to methodological materialism and as such are making the a priori assumption that there is no God.
Your materialist philosophical decision completely rules out the teleological arguement. Does that make sense?
You may not beleive the Bible but that is what Christians do beleive and if you are attempting to use logica and reason to affect what a Christian thinks you will find that no Christian can ever be made to think critically about our beleifs when we have the Bible and our Faith to do that for us.
