Re: Historicity of Damascus Road Episode
It's like discussing different possible locations where hercules solved the Gordian knot.
Alexander the Great, actually.

Numero Uno
The biggest contradiction of all is the Bible itself. With multiple versions, scribal errors, omissions, conflations, corrections, mistranslations, dogma bias and no clear provenance, quoting Scripture as gospel truth() is a fool`s errand. If believers would own up to the fact instead of pretending they have autograph text, we might make some progress in finding if there are kernels of truth in the Book. Instead we have entrenched positions defending interpretations instead of admitting 'we don`t really know'.
