I disagree with his conclusion that because the Gospel of John talks more about Jesus' divinity than Mark does, that they must have made the whole thing up and that the story got better as time went on. Chronologically the 1st New Testament books that were written were actually 1 and 2 Thessalonians, and it's pretty clear in those books that Paul thought Jesus was divine and died for our sins.

Another conclusion I disagree with is that because "extra" stuff like the woman taken in adultery and the extra material about the resurrection at the end of Mark appears, that we have to decide the whole text is flawed. Even without those parts that may or may not have been added the bible's message about Jesus is pretty consistent. I think it pretty clearly testifies of him as paying the price for our sins, being literally resurrected, and being divine. Thus I think I can accept his scholarship, that people may have added parts to the text over the years, without accepting his conclusions, because the vast majority of it doesn't appear to have been altered or added onto, and I think those parts are reliable.
