Dan,

'Misquoting Jesus' is a difficult one. Ehrman is one of a number of experts who take an extreme view that is certainly not mainstream to Biblical Critiscism. Professor Bock, who held his seat before him and was equally as brilliant, studied the same texts in similar fashion and came to an opposing position. Goes back to my illustration of politicians seeing the same thing and understanding it in contrary ways.

William Lane Craig had a very interesting debate with Ehrman. See here:

You will read it and see merit in Ehrman's position - I read it and see merit in Craig's.

In the end, we make a subjective decision that suits us.
