Since you like to leave out relevant parts of the wiki,which can be edited by anyone... I've put them in below: bolding mine.

Regarding Tacitus:

Quote:Authenticity and historical value

Although the majority of scholars consider it to be genuine, a few scholars question the authenticity of the passage given that Tacitus was born 25 years after Jesus' death.[40]

Some scholars have debated the historical value of the passage given that Tacitus does not reveal the source of his information.

Michael Martin notes that the authenticity of this passage of the Annals has also been disputed on the grounds that Tacitus would not have used the word “messiah” in an authentic Roman document.

Weaver notes that Tacitus spoke of the persecution of Christians, but no other Christian author wrote of this persecution for a hundred years.

And where is your proof on the Shroud of Turin?

See... when you cite one source, and that singular source happens to be an editable Wiki article, I'm still going to have issues believing you. Furthermore, many of the sources in that article are of the christian/catholic faith. So unless you can get an absolute independent piece of proof that can't be editable by anyone browsing the WWW, you still fail.
