Just how many names are you going by and you call me a Judas...Since we are mentioning names and you are into names let’s start with some interesting facts... There is no mention of the gospels till the 2 nd century... Further the gospels were unknown to Justin Martyr who obviusly would have quoted them if he knew they exsisted but he did not because the very names Mathew, Mark, Luke and John are never mentioned by him... Not even the bible claims that Mark was an eyewitness to Jesus. For his supposed time on earth...There is so much more I could say here but it is up to each and every person to figure these things out for themselves and who is telling the truth....Name calling is uncalled for and rather childish on your part but since you have so many names for your idol Jesus I quess it is flattering you are trying to rename me as well... Wink....
Judas is just a name that means Jew.
Most scholars believe Luke used Mark, and Luke was a contemporary of Paul, making a second century authorship of Mark essentially impossible, and a post 70 AD date very unlikely. Luke's history of the early church, Acts, ends before 70 AD, not even including the death of Paul, proving Acts was written before 70 AD, showing when Luke was active. And, Acts reads like a sequel to the Gospel of Luke.
There's not much in the way of early non-canon Christian writings in the late first or early second century, so the absence of clear quotes from a gospel doesn't prove a lot about when the gospel was written. On the other hand, the rapid spread of Christianity and Paul not writing about the life of Christ, indicates that the Gospels were making rounds well before 70 AD.
You come off a a slimy, lying Jew, no offense intended. I mean, you present very weak evidence while ignoring (not even attempting to refute) the several lines of evidence I gave.
