    Director,

    I read your apologist explanation for why three of the Gospels have different accounts of jesus's last words. The explanation is that one of the disciples was standing closer to the cross than the others and therefore heard Jesus say things that the others didn't.

    I quote from your reference. "taking into consideration the variation of the Gospel author’s positions in relation to the cross, the problem is resolved. John, being the closest to Christ, was recording what he said privately, and not as a public shouting."

    Perhaps I could get a job as an apologist and come up with even better explanations for your web sites. "Matthew's hearing aid was out of batteries and therefore he didn't hear Jesus's last words"
