The whole tying people to stakes and burning them might have had something to do with the silence of the mythicist position, don't you think RR?
However, you're completely wrong, as usual. The mythicist position was being espoused before "jesus" was a twinkle in "pauls" eyes (as far back as 600bce).....right next door, in hindu tradition. The greeks undercut the magic man claim before it ever expressed itself in christianity, and the romans, alleged contemporaries - seem to have recognized it for a scam.
Strange how all of that changes as soon as they assume the power of a state...and strange how it stays that way until they -cede- power to nascent secular states. Probably just a coincidence.
