== Second Paragraph Summary of agreed points == 

 I apologize in advance for bringing up what likely has been discussed at length. Being new to this article, I was not a part of that discussion and do not even know where to look in the archives for it.  

 This paragraph expresses the consensus of both critical and conservative scholars on the life of Jesus. Is there any reason why we can't take the list of scholars into a footnote and add others such as Paul L. Maier, D. A. Carson and other more conservative historians to the list? Since I work in a theological library, I could even look in the works of each of these and provide exact citations for them (after the first of the year, of course) that establishes this.
