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):

What is Resurrection?
Resurrection is the concept of coming back to life after death. In a number of ancient religions, a dying-and-rising god is a deity which dies and resurrects. The death and resurrection of Jesus, an example of resurrection, is the central focus of

Christianity. As a religious concept, it is used in two distinct respects: a belief in the resurrection of individual souls that is current and ongoing (Christian idealism, realized eschatology), or else a belief in a singular resurrection of the dead at the end of the world. The resurrection of the dead is a standard eschatological belief in the Abrahamic religions.

Who is Bart Ehrman?
Bart Ehrman (born 1955) is an American New Testament scholar focusing on textual criticism of New Testament, historical Jesus, and development of early Christianity. Ehrman has written and edited 30 books, including three college textbooks. He has

also authored six New York Times bestsellers. He is currently the James A. Gray Distinguished Professor of Religious Studies at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
