What happened between Jesus death & the gospels being written?
by yaddayadda inhi, i'm interested in researching this subject.
can anyone recommend any good books that offer critical theories on the origins of early christianity, specifically the content and creation of the gospels.
for instance, how much of the gospels is underlying historical truth and how much might be exaggerations that crept in through, say 'chinese whispers' in the time between jesus death and the writing of the gospels ?

Just been knocked up with a DC invite (UK)
by skeptic2 inthe buzzer rang a moment ago and when i answered the intercom (i live in a flat) a voice said "we are two jehovahs witnesses come to invite you to a district convention".
i put the intercom down without saying anything.
they didnt bother to try again, but went on to the next number.. i kept an eye on them from my window (i can see the main door) and it seemed everyone in my building at least had the good sense to ignore them, no-one let them in.. this is the first time we have had jws knocking to my knowledge.

you might wander around down there for years, have a family, make friends.
then you will find it is hard to get out.

Does WTS claim that Jesus 2nd presence was in 1874 or 1914? (non-JW asks)
by whyizit ini'm not a jw, nor have i ever been, so some of the things that my jw friends tell me just don't seem to make sense.
to avoid conflict in our friendship, sometimes i just let things slide, rather than argue.
i am, however, a bible-believing, non-denominational christian who reads and studies the bible frequently, and loves yahweh.. my jw friend just slipped yet another wt magazine in my door and it says that: "jesus christ began to rule as king of god's kingdom in 1914.
