There is no universally accepted non-Christian reference (statements by believers are not evidence) to an historical Jesus, (none) and many reasons to doubt his historicity. Comparing Caesar (who is a known secular human who is referenced in countless Roman civil documents, INCLUDING the works HE HIMSELF wrote, to a wandering preacher who is the object of faith, (never mentioned by Pontius Pilate, who Peter in Acts has to explain to the Jews who he was and what they did ... they didn't even know) is typical Christian dishonesty. The "passion" is made up. Never once in all of history, was the Sanhedrin called into session on Passover weekend.
There are no original documents of the NT.
