@MeTolerateYou There are very real differences between the canon of the synoptic gospels and those that were excluded. Papyri of the Gospel of Thomas for example have been dated earlier than any of the synoptic gospels including Mark and Luke. In my opinion the NT gospels were primarily selected in order to refute the Gnostic and Arian traditions in favour of the Roman Church with its emphasis on the Trinitarian creed, male supremacy and the need for priests to intercede between man and god..

@Douglaslid actually the other books that didn't make it into the canon had various historical innacuracies about the culture and such. The names they used and such. Other reasons were the time of writing, some were written more than 2 generations after Christ, which is reaching the length of time where fabrication can start to creep in.

The 4 gospels were all written withing 1 generation which means it's too early for fabrications to emerge. It wasn't "crafted" like you think.

[Douglaslid]

This is based on complete nonsense. The New Testament scriptures on which his whole argument is predicated were selected by men because they conformed to a popular canon. Other gospels such as the Gospel of Thomas, the Gospel of Mary of Magdala, the Sophia of Jesus, were rejected because they did not conform to this canon. Some of the rejected gospels were declared to be heresy. The New Testament was clearly crafted by early churchmen, not god.

Also, someone who calls himself 'Supreme American' judging others as narcissistic is a little rich... Good hustle :)

@SupremeAmerican I was raised a Catholic, so I know a fair bit, and have been immersed in the bible since birth... I don't deny my narcissism, so 'calling' me one does not bother me... My spirituality is the level of perspective I have on my narcissism, which I think is good. I like spirituality informed by direct experience, and evidence, of which there is plenty. Reciting scripture in with a lot of conviction and emotion might carry a lot of charge and resonance, but it does not go deep.
