Also, are we really to trust the word of people whose academic expertise are in the area of the New Testament (people who often obtained their degrees from religious colleges and universities)? I'd sooner trust the word of a secular individual with academic expertise in ancient history. Excuse me if I believe Christians might be a bit biased in deciding whether or not Christ was actually real.
Not to mention, some scholars argue that Yeshua, Christ's romanized, given name, was actually very popular in that time period and region of the world. So it'd be like saying:
Once, in or around the period of 1913-2019, there existed a man named Mark.
Uh... so?
Either way, I'm not interested in debating the particulars, as I don't honestly care a whole lot. I think it's something worth doubting, in the sense that I'm willing to say, sure, maybe there was a man named Jesus that's the same one the Bible was talking about. Maybe. Not convinced. Not even nearly convinced. But maybe it's true. And even if it is? So what? Men don't walk on water. Or turn water to wine. Or wine to cheese, for that matter. Magic doesn't exist, and thousands of years later, Christians, and every other group of religious folks, have failed to provide any evidence for god. In fact, that haven't even defined what god actually is.
That's saying, they haven't even defined a thing that they haven't given evidence for yet. Talking about that's about as good as talking about nothing.

If you're frightened of dying, and you're holding on, you'll see devils tearing your life away. But if you've made your peace, then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the Earth.
