Hey Fred, wanna talk about the problems between the synoptic gospels
and the book of John?

How many years was Jesus' ministry?  The synoptics say 3 years, John
says one.
What did Jesus say in his trial before Pilate?  The synoptics say
"nothing, such that Pilate marvelled."  John has Jesus making long
speeches telling Pilate who he is.

Have you figured out yet that John, which apparently came along long
after the synoptics and is clearly about mythmaking, isn't really
telling the same story?
