In reply to the discussion: Qanon is evidence that we cannot trust any writings about Jesus or other religions [View all]edhopper
(34,851 posts)if the majority of the GOP were to write the history of the Jan 6th Insurrection we would be told that it was not a riot but normal tourist, that Trump had nothing to do with it and that if there were rioters they were BLM and Antifi and not any of the groups who actually did it.
So, is there any basis to believe the writings of four men who were not part of the events, but have a clear agenda, writing decades and decades after the fact. Books that contradict each other and have various ahistorical passages.?
Should we consider any religious writings as a good source for historical facts? Is mentioning a few historic figures or places enough?
We see how even with clear reporting on what happened this year, those with an agenda, not only warp history to make it unrecognizable, but also believe this false history.
