Re: The woman taken in adultery and Papyrus Bodmer II.
I thought I did answer the question but concede that from your POV I did not. :)

Re: The woman taken in adultery and Papyrus Bodmer II.
No, I really don't believe you did answer the specific question. What I said was that, should we find a copy of the Gospel of john that was earlier than Papyrus Bodmer II that contained the story of the woman taken in adultery, then I woud have no choice but to concede that you were right and that the reason it was missing from Papyrus Bodmer II was because that version had been tampered with, as you suggested.
Now, here's my question once again, somewhat rephrased: If we find a number of copies of the Gospel of John that are earlier than Papyrus Bodmer II, all of which have the section that should contain the story of the woman taken in adultery, and it turns out that they don't; would you concede it was added later or would you say that they, too had been tampered with?
You, in fact did not answer this question. Instead you went off on this riff about why would people accept the existence of Socrates and not Jesus. Since this had nothing to do with whether the story of the woman taken in adultery was oiginally in John or added later, and since I had never asserted that Jesus didn't exist, I couln't understand why you brought this issue up.
My question above should be relatively easy to answer. Your answer is either "Yes, I would then concede the story ws added later," or the answer would be, "No, I would still assert that the story was part ofthe original Gospel of John." So, basically, this is a yes or no question. What is your answer?
