He claims that Gibson did not realize that the four Gospels were not at all historical records, and that they had multiple authors, all being written many decades after the crucifixion—and, moreover, that they do not agree on anything "of importance" (e.g., the virgin birth and the genealogy of Jesus).
Hitchens tvrdi da Gibson uopće nije shvatio da četiri evanđelja nisu povijesni zapisi, te da ona imaju mnogostruke autore, a sva su napisana mnogo desetljeća poslije razapinjanja i, štoviše, ona se ne slažu ni oko čega "važnoga" (npr. djevičanskog rođenja i Isusova rodoslovlja).
