An 'expert is so because generally speaking, they make their living doing what they do, and can be swayed with the right motivation. I would ask to the 'evidence' and make my own conclusions.

I would also have a lot of questions as in:

What does the evidence of someone not existing look like?

Any testimony can be dismissed, or cancled out by contrary testimony.

The lack of records would only be valid if ALL records of that time were accounted for.

So Im logically at a loss at how one can establish how a specific indivisual in the sea of human History can be proven to never existed. At the very best all that can be said is this person existence has not been confirmed. And if we are talking about Christ, then everyone else of that time frame is also suspect, because their is more data on Him and anyone of that period.

If by 'data' you mean;
"Erm... well... Jerusalem exists!"

BS, Verona exists, there's more evidence for the Capulets than any of the characters in the Jewish fantasy.
Like it or not the word 'data' simply means facts or other information used to reason out or plan something. This iscludes the bible.
