This is pure atheist revisionist/Talibanic fraud/nonsense.
Do you really think an atheist will ever admit to anything that supports Church doctrine ?
Of course not !
Atheism today simply declares that the apostles/disciples never wrote the N.T.; that they are all forgeries written by literary miscreants using the pseudonyms of the apostles/disciples.
There is no evidence supporting this fraud and only "scholars" who do not believe in the existence of miracles subscribe to this blasphemy.
How could atheist scholars, or why would atheist scholars ever be trusted to report anything truthful about a religion that they live to destroy ?
Atheism today, led by Satan's most productive lie factory, Burton L. Mack, are rampaging against orthodox Catholicism and Protestantism as payback/revenge for pre- 1920's harrassment.
Atheists were relentlessly bullied by the Church and now that the pendulum has swung the other way they will out-perform their nemesis and rage against theist machinery at its sources (manuscripts) to exact their demonic revenge.
