Historians and Apologists have been arguing for centuries about the evidence for a historical Jesus, the Mythicist theory takes the position that Jesus may never have existed as a real person and has compelling evidence to support it. Join us as we invite the top three scholars/authors in the field to discuss the best and worst evidence for a historical Jesus.
For example:
Paul was said to have acquire his information from disciple Peter and Jesus' brother James - is this not reliable?
What is the mystery faith connection?
Due to oral traditions of the time - it is likely that the Gospels captured an accurate account of events?
