Reddit reviews Mastering Logical Fallacies: The Definitive Guide to Flawless Rhetoric and Bulletproof Logic

Why is your default setting to be in polemical mode? I understand logical fallacies thank you, I have five books on the subject, and I've also written on the origin of logical theory in Western intellectual thought. But thanks for the lesson. Amateur atheists in the sense that the people I have in view are those who are 1) amateurs (not professional historians, and 2) atheists (why their ideology leads them into making this ludicrous claim.) Saying some atheists do not believe Jesus was a historical figure is not a straw man, I cannot even begin to understand how you think that could possible be a strawman! The quotes I lifted from your screed are accurate- you genuinely believe that no-one gives a sht about whether a non-magical Jesus existed. That is false, actually, quite frankly, embarrassingly false, and is a misunderstanding you even repeat that in this post.

You keep wanting to talk about whether Jesus could do magic. The only people who want to talk about that are Christians. I am referring to what historians debate about. Are you wanting a list of books before you believe it? Begin with the Jesus Seminar and work out from there. If you continue to want to be obtuse and fail to appreciate this basic point we cannot proceed. You are refusing to let me accurately frame the debate and outline the position of educated atheist historians- Jesus was a historical, non-supernatural historical person. Either I am being inarticulate, or you are trying to close down conversation, for what reason I do not know (ignorance of the field, a general disposition to be unpleasant?). This is the third time I have attempt to unburden you of your mistaken perspective. Instead of saying "no-one gives a shit" if a non-magical Jesus exists when they evidently do(!!!!) why not just say that you* do not give a shit. Fair enough! Not everyone is.
