There's no such thing as Santa Claus
well, there's no santa anymore...There's no such thing as Santa Claus, so there's one mystery explained.
Merry Christmas!

The Bible isn't historical. Once you start there, most of the remaining mysteries seem to fall into place, and become not so mysterious at all. Though admittedly, this does not solve the whole Santa Claus mystery....I haven't figured that one out yet, but I'm pretty sure it involved teleportation.

The Bible isn't historical?
We can't trust these scriptures?
Why do you believe that?
What evidence do you have to support your view?
The New Testament was written 30 - 70 years after Jesus died. Also, the Bible was put together around 300 AD by a council (I believe the Nicene), which selected which gospels would go into it. Any biblical scholar will tell you that.

So, I am to believe your three sentences answer the questions I asked?
Can we start with "the Bible was put together around 300 A.D."
Over what time period were these 66 books written?
I'm not trying to put you off here, but I don't think a Biblical scholar would agree with your post.
If the brightest minds in history have wrestled with this question, isn't it strange that so many of you have come to a decision in such a (seemingly) flippant manner?

If there was consensus among biblical scholars perhaps there wouldn't be 600+ sects of Christianity.
And if there wasn't a successful vote of the first ecumenical council to name Jesus Christ the Son of God, there likely wouldn't be consensus on that either.

If you expect more than mostly flippant remarks in a thread started by iron horse, you don't spend much time here.

At what point do you push your chair back and say, "fuck me! I spend a LOT of time arguing on the internet."
