He (and I) want any scholor who makes such a claim to be accurate. At this point there is NO accurate historical evidence. that doesnt preclude the posibility they existed, however it does tell me that we should not make the claim sans proof.

Ferd,
Your points are taken but Pelathais has made the same arguments on other threads which you may not be aware of without anyone making a link to Arnold's book. I agree if someone makes those claims they should be able to prove them. I believe Pel makes his statements based on NO historical record and because of his elephant/ glove compartment comment I believe Pel thinks there is no possibility that anyone obeyed
Acts 2:38 since the early church until the early 1900's and because he doesn't allow for the remotest possibility that someone may have obeyed it, I doubt he believes there is evidence that may be forthcoming.
Only Pel and Raven can clear up any misunderstanding I have about their post but I think it is good of you try to help me to see what they wrote in a different light.
Maybe I'm wrong in what I think he is saying.
