Why does Jesus misquote the Old Testament so often?

I read it, then tossed it. It is, in my opinion, little more that a casserole of innuendo and defective argument.But, of course, you feel differently. So why not simply put forward what you find to be Mr. Strobel's most probative argument, and we'll see where it leads? Parenthetically, I suggest you scan Lowder's crituque before doing so.

Fair enough. Which of Strobel's arguments did you find most compelling?

I look forward to it. Perhaps you would like to present/defend it in its own thread.

It is the height of arrogance to dismiss the the desciples of Kali, of Mitra, of Apollonius, etc. It is equally arrogant, or ignorant, to similarly dismiss the disciples of Gnosticism.Sorry, keith63, but you know absolutely nothing about what, if anything, the apostles migh or might not have done other than what you think you know through reading redacted, 2nd-hand accounts, crafted decades after the fact, and carefully filtered by Church censorship. The relative success of Christianity over competing fantasies is due, more than anything else, to Constantine.
