>So what you are saying is that if I write a book or tell stories/fables about your life then that should be taken as if you wrote it yourself?

No. I wasn't sure why you were skeptical of the biblical record of Jesus. There are many objections and one of the first is usually that the bible as we have it was written hundreds of years after Jesus, or that it's a translation of a translation of a translation, etc. So I presented the manuscript evidence to address that objection. It sounds like you don't have that objection.

I think you are saying that you agree that the bible was written by actual friends and acquaintances of Jesus and that our current manuscripts are accurate copies of those original writings. Is that right?

If so, then I think your objection is that those writers did not accurately report what Jesus said or did. Is that right? If so, I will address that.

Thanks.
