Godrulz said: " the Gospels have strong manuscript evidence and are trustworthy historical sources"
That is a totally mistaken view.
We have no earlier manuscript than the Codex Sinaiticus, apart from fragments. What we have is a copy of a copy of a copy, that is then translated and includes in that translation the theology of the translator.
We have no way of knowing what the authors wrote originally, even assuming that what they wrote can be trusted.
Which I doubt, for good reason.
Godrulz goes on:
"The burden of proof is on you to show why the Gospels are not his words"
Just like the burden of proof is on us to prove there is no God. Get real man.

Meanwhile, back to the theme of the thread....
If asked to attend/join bible study/why I am not a witness, "Do you really want to know?" (If they really want to know, I'll take them on it. But they better be prepared!)
"I can't honestly follow something that is not the truth."
When asked what church I attend, "That's a personal question."
Asked how I liked the drama/service, "The flowers were nice." or "It was about the same as last year."
When told I am missed at the meetings, "I miss you too. Let's make a coffee date."
