Dates

This is page has some problems but may eventually be useful for seeing where relative consensus exists on dating and where big disagreements remain.  As of now, it is too incomplete.  E.g., most critical scholars consider the 1, 2, Timothy and Titus late forgeries, but all the dates given on this page assume authenticity.  I also wonder how many visitors to this page would have any idea which are the liberal and which are the conservative Christian scholars.
