::I don't want to get into a long drawn out debate, but from my perspective the Gospels are mythology. Of course, it doesn't matter whether I think this, just as it doesn't matter that John Kenney thinks they are not mythology. The question is, are there credible historians, students of comparative literature, and folklorists who call the Gospels mythology? If so, we need to acknowledge this, state whose POV it is and provide some context. If no such specialist calls them mythology, it is a moot point.

:After a huge and somewhat acrimonious debate, spread over several articles, it was decided not to include Bible stories as part of mythology. In common usage the word is offensive to many, and they probably deserve their own articles anyway. [[User:DJ Clayworth|DJ Clayworth]] 15:29, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
