    1. There was no such requirement to work as a tax collector. You don’t need to be an expert of literature techniques to knock on a door. Also it was Christian tradition.

    2. Which is a very good argument. Why didn’t your god know what local illiterates knew?

    3. Learn Greek or at least copy from an apologetics writer who knows it. Matthew doubled all over the place the donkey and the horse being the worst incident of his lies.

    4. There is no evidence of an oral tradition. Mark copied Paul, Greek Hebrew-Bible, and some Greco-Roman traditions. Matthew copied him and added some more Greek stuff. Luke copied Matthew and Josphius. John copied them all.

    5. Really? So you know you know your coworker’s mom said while praying 33 years ago one time with no eyewitnesses? Answer the question, yes or no.

    6. Full sentences please.

    7. Prove it.

    8. Dying and rising God. The idea of a god coming down, raping a girl, the child being a powerful figure who dies and becomes celestial is not original. Christian schools tend to avoid teaching this.

    9. Every fact about Jesus stated by Paul is found in Matthew, every interpretation of the facts Matthew disagrees with. What happened to the law? Paul said it no longer applied. Matthew said it did. When did Jesus become celestial? Paul said at the resurrection Matthew at conception.

    10. Prophecy is as fake as the hair of your prot. Pope.

    11. The Trinity wasn’t invented yet.

    12. Right so if you could just show the evidence of your assertion that would be swell. I don’t really give a shit about some story your grandma told you.
