Phil --
Would you agree (whether Yeshua was a prophet, an avatar, a rather
fantastical carpenter, or someone with a unique relationship to God -- take
your
pick) that his essential mission (pardon the term) was to reform Judaism?
That
he (if he existed, please see Josephus) had absolutely no intention of and no
desire to create another religion?

I had written:
"The partisanship comes into view when the Synoptics are dismissed as
'corruptions' of that ur-text."
to which Eric wrote:
"Who said anything about 'corruptions'?"
Well, if we are talking about the Q crowd, which of them doesn't? I
recently heard Crossan do his spiel, so let me give him as a particular
example. But leaving the Q crowd aside, this thread began with my
responding to Julie's accusation that Christianity hijacked Yeshua's
message.
