Why did pagans not take any notice of Jesus?

[Yonadav]

I agree, but I wouldn't really expect for there to be.

How do you mean?

People often use the "very few scholars deny the histrocity of Jesus" line as if it means anything. That some apologists are throwing the religious a bone doesn't change how much evidence exists for a historical Jesus. At best, we can say he might've been real. Maybe.

But I don't know if that's quite good enough to just march on like we know he was real and attempt to discredit anyone who says otherwise.

I'm not arguing for his historicity. I just wouldn't expect to find mention of him in other sources. Folks in this discussion are acting like it is reasonable to expect that he would have been mentioned in one or more of the surviving pagan writings from that time. But I think that it would be a terribly long shot for him to be mentioned in any of them.
