The sketchy story of Jesus



Yup. These are my objections in a nutshell. In less than five minutes, he demonstrates how unreliable the whole story really is.

And notice how Mark ends, with the women not telling anyone? "They said nothing to anyone, because they were afraid." If they didn't tell anyone, how did it come to be written in Mark?

This is how fiction is written. In fiction, we can see what 'happens' without anyone even seeing it, let alone telling someone else. But that's because the author just makes up the story. If it were fact, there would have to be some way we could know what really did happen.

Obviously, that's not the only problem with this, and the video explains most of it very well. I just thought I'd add that little point.
