When you refer to Christian scholars as “scholars”, is it because you think you are smarter than them?
I do not think I am smarter than Christian “scholars”. I am simply more honest than they are. I keep the website because Christians are liars and cheats. I call them “scholars” with the quizzical marks because scholars are meant to be honest enquirers after truth, not obfuscators, destroyers and disturbers of evidence. They have consistently rewritten history to suit themselves, thus proving the Christian dogma, but the world and history is pretty big, and even Christians with 1000 years of total control in Europe have been unable to get rid of all the clues. Fortunately the clues, unlike Christian mythology, make a lot of sense.
I offer what I have discovered to enlighten others—not particularly Christians, who have closed their minds and even their eyes and ears to the truth.

Before you go, think about this…
The simple crowd is excessively emotional, impulsive, violent, fickle, inconsistent, irresolute and extreme in action. The individual in the group feeds on this becoming more than himself, is lifted to a higher plane than he could reach by his own effort. It springs from group self-consciousness. But there is a danger that the person will lose their identity in the group and become the tools of a demagogue.

The spontaneous remission rate of all cancers, lumped together, is estimated to be something between one in ten thousand and one in a hundred thousand. If no more than five per cent of the 100 million who have come to Lourdes since 1858 were there to treat their cancers, there should have been something between fifty and 500 cures of cancer from spontaneous remission and therefore seeming miraculous. The total of miraculous cures accepted by the Church is about a hundred, and cancers are only about five percent of them, so the rate of spontaneous remission of cancer at Lourdes seems to be lower than if the patients had stayed at home.
