and you are operating on the presupposition that he didn't. If his apostles were all literate and capable of writing, I am prepared to make the leap and believe that Jesus was also literate and probably wrote. Neither one of us has any real evidence either way, though my opinion is based on a little more logic.

Glad you finally dropped the "centuries later". Well, since non-biased accounts for anything during that time period were a bit more than "spotty" I'm not sure what that wins you. Except we have plenty to go off of. You just don't know about it or remain in denial. Much later? What the heck does that mean? And compared to what?

you will find that if you read my previous comments, I have repeatedly clarified what I stated by hundreds of years later, and ill let you do that search.

. As someone who has studied Mormonism for at least a decade and interacts with LDS on a weekly basis I find your analogy both inaccurate (mostly due to the anachronistic viewpoint you keep suffering from) and insulting. Then such theories are useless.

Interesting, I worked next to and for people who adhered to the Church of Latter Day Saints for years myself, and also dealt with them on a daily basis, what of it? I don't pretend to be in a position to speak for them as you do apparently. Now you will be insulted for people you probably consider a form of heretic?
However, I can comment on my conviction that their religion is so preposterous that it makes the idea of you as a priest seem reasonable in comparison.
Ironically, Mormon's are some of the cleanest living, nicest people ive ever met. Its a shame they have built a religion on the scams of a con artist.
