    “Everything is permissible for me” is a small disagreement with canonical Christianity?

    Oh and for the record he didn’t write Timothy. I am sure a biblical scholar such as yourself knew that already.

    I wouldn’t be so sure about that.

    It’s largely based on outdated tautology dating anything with a whiff of Gnosticism to the 2nd century which only changed up around the turn of the 21st century.

    I’d happily wager with you that attitudes around 2 Timothy’s grouping with 1 Timothy and Titus (which are forgeries) won’t last another 15 years.

    P.S. How many of those scholars think there was no historical Jesus?

      He was still sending them money and I am not going into the Duetropaul argument since it proves nothing.

      P.S. do you know what an argument from authority logical fallacy is? Especially since you are going against the grain with your dating of the Gospel of Thomas. Did you know that around 60% of polled Bible scholars believe the resurrection is a true literal historical event?
