Boy who cried wolf and Christian texts and history

[StephenGoranson]

The Aesop fable of the boy who cried wolf occurs to me, if I am allowed to mention it here.
I wrote that one therefore-mythicism-concluding post seemed to me not to logically follow from the reasoning offered for that assertion.
If I may suggest this, here, offering weak or irrelevant justifications for an a priori preference may weaken an occasion when a better argument from the same poster may occur.

[Peter Kirby]

In this analogy, did we stop reading their arguments or... ?

To my knowledge, the consensus says that Luke is a gospel addressed to gentiles. Gentiles are not obliged to know the geography of the Judea and Galilee. Even less to know a priori where Capernaum is.

Therefore: *Ev precedes Luke.

I still read posts, but hope I may say that the conclusion there is a non sequitur.

[Peter Kirby]

According to the fable, repeated false statements lead to someone being ignored even when they are heard saying something true.

[Peter Kirby]

And yes, you can say that the conclusion there is a non sequitur.

I have given up to consider decisive the argument based on the ignorance in geography by the Gentile readers of Luke, but in whiletime I am going to raise new and stronger arguments that hardly can be ignored.
