PERSPECTIVES / LETTERS : It Is Arrogant to Debate What Jesus Really Said

Re: “Two Views of What Jesus Really Said” (Book review, Jan. 8):

The Times reported that biblical scholars have determined that Jesus Christ didn’t utter most of the sayings ascribed to him in the Bible.

The crass arrogance of these so-called scholars to contend that they know what Jesus said and what he didn’t is beyond description.
