Some additional facts about the New Testament that should cast doubt on it's reliability:

All 4 canonical gospels are written by anonymous Greek-speaking Christians living 40-70 years after the death of Jesus, not by eye-witnesses: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Authorship_of_the_Bible#Gospels_and_Acts
http://www.christianbiblereference.org/jintro.htm
http://www.rationalresponders.com/the_gospels_are_anonymous_works_and_none_are_eyewitness_accounts

We have no original copies of any book in the New Testament, and most of the copies we have come from many centuries after the originals were lost: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biblical_manuscript#New_Testament_manuscripts

The new testament contains many contradictions: http://www.errancy.com/ratings/overall-ratings/

and historical errors: http://www.answering-christianity.com/abdullah_smith/historical_errors_in_the_gospels-3.htm

The new testament may contain as many as 11 forgeries, letters that were written in the name of someone other than the person who actually wrote them (The term "pseudepigraphy" is often used instead of "forgery", but the meaning is identical):
