:doh:

there's tons of evidence that support the existence of jesus. ancient scholars and historians such Josephus (i believe thats his name) who was not affiliated w/ any "christian" church back in the day wrote about the life of christ specifically, not just any of the other dozens/hundreds of jesus's. this is the same historian that we rely on for a lot of ancient roman history. beyond that, old roman official documents record of the consequences of jesus's actions back in the day, whos teachings and actions stirred up lots of unruly crowd activity. not that that was his intention, but the romans had to supress the people who were either rioting against or for jesus

the four gospels w/in the bible are also time tested, not only in authorship but content. the places and events that the different authors record are all real events (the different census, rulers, governors, officials, feasts, etc.). theres a whole slew of background information on that which would take far too long to dive into

all in all, the actual "evidence" that christ existed is out there. all educated historians will admit that disproving his existence is a far tougher challenge than proving his existence

this info is all out there. its just that not many people have the access to dig through manuscript after manuscript to trace back into a time period, culture and society that all of us today are completely unfamiliar w/ (for the most part)


and brar, youre ignorant
