They are as reliable as the Lynx deodorant commercials. And they have the
same purpose: to sell something.

An unqualified, 'Yes' -- to anyone who believes Matthew 27:52-53 is an
account of an actual historical event.

However, the fact that the deity (whether just one, or three rolled into
'one') responsible for 'producing' them didn't bother to preserve even a
single original autograph seems to indicate rather strenuously that the
aforementioned deity didn't think them worth the papyri they were written
on, don't you think?

And then there's the matter of what the 'originals' contained 'originally'.
Would we find which of the disputed ending Mark's gospel is the 'correct'
one, for example? Would we discover which town, village, or city sitting
adjacent to the shores of the Sea of Galilee the events surrounding the
exorcism and subsequent drowning of a demonically-possessed herd of pigs
that the story of the 'Gadarene Demonic' took place? Presently, Gadara,
Gergesa, and Gerasa -- all attested to in various manuscripts -- are too far
inland to have been *those* settlements.

But hey, who cares if the New Testament documents are 'reliable'? It doesn't
matter one hoot -- as the numerous contradictions, textual errors,
historical 'mistakes' and downright psychologically implausible...

You clowns are standing next to a major expressway, shouting "GET A
HORSE!" at the top of your lungs.

It would be humorous if it weren't so pathetic.

originating from nothing in reality, giving rise to any and all forms
