No but he is one of the people who brought the discredited idea back into the modern conversation. There is no evidence of this common source.
who 'discredited' it? have you read it/how do you explain the common material?
Anyone can, there's no evidence or "document" whatsoever. There's a reason it fell out of favor as a theory in the early 20th century before Ehrman and others dragged it back in. It's literally a made up theory and the "scholars" admit that. They have motivation to push it as it undermines scriptural and church authority to some unknowable source. You will see some scholars push "L" and "M" sources for the same reason, even though there is zero evidence they exist!
The commonalities are easily explained because Luke interviewed several people including likely Matthew to write his Gospel. Matthew was also likely written and published before Luke. Luke was very big on accurately representing eyewitness accounts since he was not a first hand eyewitness of Jesus like Matthew, Peter (who likely dictated to Mark), and John were.
fair enough, I'll keep that in mind as i continue to research. but for now; I think it's presented to us for a reason; a ton of similarities with our Q. it's also paints a different picture of Jesus that most aren't accustomed to.
as Q says, there are no coincidences.
