Jesus' Actions Exaggerated, Assert the Informed

The Jesus Seminars are a method of historical study in which biblical scholars vote on which of Jesus' sayings they think are authentic. About 20% of what the Bible attributes to Jesus passes muster. I know many believing thinkers who think this approach is reductive and even silly, and I tend to agree, although I think more could be done in this mega-collaborative vein. Anyway, I thought of the Jesus Seminars when I saw this clip from Family Guy.
