This video presents several arguments for traditional authorship of the four gospels. Based on this, it concludes the historicity of Jesus. Furthermore, any skeptics who go around saying that we don't know who wrote the gospels now must answer this video.

  • 10 minutes of wasted time.... no thanks I won't watch it.

    I don't give 2 craps over "Gospel Evidence"

    I want to see "HISTORICAL Evidence"

  • @Nihm420

    The intent of the video was to demonstrate that the gospels themselves are historical texts.

  • I DONT BELIEVE IN JESUS :D. I do believe in god though. Im jewish.

  • @Mrmentalmadness123 Really? Atheists are so low. Is that all you have?

  • Even if we accept Jesus lived how does that prove he was the son of god and performed miracles. You have answered nothing I'm afraid. Why do you feel you can establish the authorship of the gospels when trained scolars are unable to do so with any degree of reasonable certainty? You want to believe so badly you will claim any old thing to "prove" it all true. You're a young guy - why dont you get a life and maybe a girlfriend rather than waste you life decyphering this nonsense?

  • oh and screw the gospels...i dont often say this about fiction or creative work in writing in general...but i think all of those should be burned, along with every religious text there is....it had created so much trouble with people not understanding fiction form reality

  • who the fuck hasa picture of george bush in their room?

  • Why do you repeatedly fail to see something as simple as *the historicity of a document does not attest the reliability of its claims*? Is the construction of the book what is claimed historical, not its contents: There is no document, nor archaeological evidence to contrast such contents: A King ordering kids to be slaughtered. A roman census as accounted by gospels. The star of Bethlehem, and so forth. Even Josephus was hoaxed as accepted by the Vatican itself. What's your problem, @Kabane?
