Really though. Mark was just a child at the time of the gospels and although Peter or Paul may have taught him reading and writing, it's unlikely either him nor his teachers were literate enough to write something like the gospels. John was likely to be illiterate. Many scholars agree Matthew was written by a second generation follower after 90 A.D. Luke was a physician and the only one educated enough to likely be the original author of his version of the gospels. The earliest he might have written it was between 60 and 80 A.D. but as far as I know he only met Jesus once and that was after he was resurected. So only one of the authors was even around most of the events of the Gospels and that was John and many scholars think that he didn't write the Gospel according to John.

I think the only gospel written before 70 A.D. was the one Jesus wrote. He posted it once here on Poemranker but everyone made fun of him and called him gay, so he deleted it and quit the site. That's pretty much why all of us here are doomed to an eternal damnation.

Spot on - except the dog turned blue from the siren lights

I seldom do. They usually think they know.

You have apparently studied this more than I have. I would be interested in a short list of the gospels you think are the oldest and/or the most reliable in terms of authenticity from the first century.

I have that effect on some people.

Yes I guess I am bias towards the logical.

And you're saying you're not any of those things? Someone on here once said I don't have any feelings....that hurt.

Now, THAT's a poem.

I like the fact that he not unly used cock, but that he referred to it as his "ready cock"... now theres a difference! It was ready for something!
