(Religion Forum) Jesus: The Gospel Disharmony

[anciano]

1. Excellent read.

Thomas Paine addresses this issue in his treatise "The Age of Reason":
"The contradictions in those books demonstrate two things: First, that the writers cannot have been eyewitnesses and earwitnesses of the matters they relate, or they would have related them without those contradictions; and, consequently that the books have not been written by the persons called apostles, who are supposed to have been witnesses of this kind. Secondly, that the writers, whoever they were, have not acted in concerted imposition, but each writer separately and individually for himself, and without the knowledge of the other."
