The Three-Headed "Jesus" Problem

Have just started reading There Was No Jesus, There Is No God by Rafael Lataster...a former evangelical who saw the light. He has jumped into the HJ-MJ debate by adding a 3d category. The BJ. (No...not what you'd think....enjoyable as that would be.) The BJ is the Biblical Jesus...the jesus that dumbfucks like G-C and Drippy maintain is real. As he says in this article the BJ is easily dismissed. The HJ is the product of various scholars who look at the gospels and think there just HAD to be a real person and the MJ is the realization that "jesus" is no more necessary to the myth than a historical Osiris was to his.

Again, as he gets to his discussion of the evidence, I'll add on to this thread.

Quote:Did historical Jesus really exist? The evidence just doesn’t add up.
There are clearly good reasons to doubt Jesus’ historical existence.
Again, as he gets to his discussion of the evidence, I'll add on to this thread.
