Is it possible to Construct a historical Narrative of Jesus?
I hold to the position that it is very difficult, if not impossible to construct a historical narrative of Jesus of Nazareth. The debate will be structured as follows: Round 1 Acceptance, (no arguments) Round 2 Opening Statement from Pro, Rebuttal/Opening Statement from Con Round 3 Continuing Rebuttals Round 4 Rebuttals/Closing Statement (no new arguments) All sources must be cited clearly....
