The Historicity of Aristotle • Richard Carrier Blogs In my new book The Obsolete Paradigm of a Historical Jesus I show mathematically why we are so confident in the existence of most ancient persons, and why we get different results for Jesus when we ho...

I answer the claim #Jesus is better attested than #Aristotle by running a #bayesian analysis of the evidence for Aristotle we lack for Jesus, a reason why historians are sure Aristotle existed but shouldn't be for Jesus.

Bart Ehrman's Latest Weird Attempt to Refute Mythicism • Richard Carrier Blogs After ten years of pretty much ignoring the arguments in the peer-reviewed studies on the question of Jesus’s historicity, Bart Ehrman has tried again to “respond” to their findings—and again proves h...

I catalogue all the mistakes #BartEhrman made in his recent lectures on the #historicity of #Jesus. It disinforms his students. And it suggest he has no interest in even knowing what the truth is. And that's not #ethical. It's careless and insulting.
