Against the Mythicists [Part 2]

I certainly deny that the gospel was developed as an ainos (see previous posts on this idea) but to go all out and claim that Jesus never existed, that the Passion never happened or that the gospel was developed as a kind of 'joke' at some point in a later period is in my opinion reckless and ultimately very stupid.

Here are some excerpts from a recent book which attempts to demolish the mythicist opinion.

The author does a much better job than me as I feel that these people who claim such things deserve only to be called stupid and lazy because, well it's a stupid position developed to justify intellectual laziness.
