It's funny how that works, if someone says something about Jesus as a Christian, that's supposed to discredit what they say but if someone says something about Jesus as an anti-Christian, that's supposed to be pure of ideological motive, even if the anti-Christian is a professional or clearly ideological anti-Christian. It's especially funny when the person who you claim is credible has absolutely no scholarly or academic or other claim to having made an in-depth study of the matter as opposed to Christians who have published many things in any rigorously reviewed journals on those topics which, as well, publish reviewed papers by their opponents.
It's got its parallel in how the media treats conservatives as more credible than liberals, Republicans as more credible than Democrats.
Update: Yeah, yeah, like I said, it's Christmas at the geriatric jr. high. Let me guess, someone's proposing they all read Burroughs' Junky's Christmas to go with the rest of the annual pubescent cynicism. I relearned that cynicism turns lefties into self-indulgent, self-involved slugs from Eugene O'Neill I didn't need Duncan's cynical exercise in time-wasting to know that, it took me a long time to realize that's what it was and is. I'll bet I can guess who pooped in the wassail bowl without looking.
If Democrats would just learn to get along with Republicans we could finally have our bi-partisan paradise.
