@kingdavid403 saidGiven the life expectancy at that time, I'd say Josephus wrote his history two or, more likely, three generations after Jesus was executed.
Three decades huh?
@kingdavid403 saidAsserting that I "know absolutely nothing about" the reasoning and information behind the case I've made is a weak 'debating point'. It doesn't make your "setting [me] straight" case any stronger.
I was just setting you straight on something you know absolutely nothing about.
@kingdavid403 saidHe wrote it two or three generations ~ six decades ~ after the events his secondary source account describes.
A guess now. LOL... 😀 Sorry, you're wrong again.
@KingDavid403
I'd rather you just calm yourself and converse in good faith instead of falling apart and capitulating like this.
@fmf said😉 falling apart? 😆

@kingdavid403 saidWhich part of this: "He wrote it two or three generations ~ six decades ~ after the events his secondary source account describes" do you dispute?
As I said, you know nothing. Maybe stick to a subject you know about.
Josephus wrote his account 60+ years after the events he describes. True.
Josephus's account is not a primary source; it is a secondary one. True.
What are you disputing?
@fmf saidAll of it. You're wrong.

@kingdavid403 saidYep. All the insults and the evasive gainsaying. Compare it to your first post on this thread. You seem to have fallen apart. Read your first post and then read what you are posing this "morning" [my time].
falling apart?
