Jim: "All this granted, much remains. The contradictions are of minutiae,
not
substance; in essentials the synoptic Gospels agree remarkably well, and
form
a consistent portrait of Christ....That a few simple men should in one
generation have invented so powerful and appealing a personality, so lofty
an
ethic and so inspiring a vision of human brotherhood, would be a miracle
far
more incredible than any recorded in the Gospels."

Would it ? I disagree. But then again, this is merely my personal opinion
versus Durant's. Neither one will be able to prove or disprove their
assertions.
