I caught some of a History Channel show this evening on “The Real Pontius Pilate.” It had a theory and pattern I have been seeing on a great number of these pseudo intellectual channels (National Geographic, Discovery, History). The pattern is all the same - kick dirt on the bible, showing how the enlightened “scientists” of the 21st century know better than eye witnesses and those who knew eye witnesses. The arrogance is astounding and for any who have eyes, the agenda is plain to see.
This time (and this theory has been on lots of shows), it is stated as fact that Christ was a target of the Roman governor (in spite of what we read in the Gospels), not the Jewish leadership. You see, they were doing what he wanted. In fact, at one point they came out and said that the biblical account was wrong (though they relied on parts for their evidence).
When I see these shows, I typically turn them - but occasionally I watch to know what is being said. This nonsense must be getting watched by a larger audience. These channels are filled with nonsense shows on the Bible. I think they should change their name to “Alternate History Channel” or “Revisionist History Channel”
