Having read this entire bloody thread, I've reached a monumental epiphany.

I suspect Tunesmith is a Uni student (or generally recent grad) who has latched onto an idea from a lecture with all the fervor of a true believer. Anyone asking questions or trying to clarify general points is shot down as blind (if TS was arguing for the existance of Jesus of Nazareth, son of Joseph and Mary in the popular accounts - "Christ" was, after all, a Greek title accorded to him sometime after his mythical death) he'd be calling all the people asking questions heretics.

I find this remarkably ironic.

I should be practicing. So I will.
