Excerpt from Have We Satisfactory Evidence of the New Testament Miracles?

The Gospel Records confront us with this issue If the miracles really happened, then the gospels are authentic documents of an objective Divine Revelation. Are the miracles legendary only, then the Gospels themselves are Apocrypha of dubious historical value. In the latter casethe real Jesus is so shrouded in a mantle of myth that even the eye of the critic cannot any longer discern his true figure beneath its fantastic draperies. The cloud of myth has for ever intercepted him from our gaze. There fore either both Jesus and his miracles are historical reality or both are myth. Of course, beneath this myth there may be a kernel of truth. But then we have no historical data to enable us to detect how much is historically trustworthy.

Modern Theology is based on an arbitrary treatment of historical science. It is also an abuse of religious philosophy.
