Did Jesus Even Really Exist?

[Happy UnBeliever]

The stories just go on and on, bullshit tale after bullshit tale. There is no way that this character ever existed.

. That you find a thing impossible and therefore untrue is the very definition of the logical fallacy called "argument from incredulity"

There are some equally fanciful things written about the Buddha and the prophet Muhammud,yet there is little doubt that each was an historical figure.That absurdly unlikely things are attributed to those people does invalidate their existence.

However I don't believe in the Jesus of the New Testament with miracles due to lack of credible evidence. I DO believe it's possible ,even likely he was an historical figure,sans miracles.

Our difference here may actually be on of semantics,meaning the same thing in reality: I BEHAVE AS IF all gods,and all religions, without exception, were invented by men to meet human needs and desire;EG from the need for meaning to the desire for power and wealth.I believe the notion of priests/clergy/prophets is one of the greatest a confidence tricks ever perpetrated on the human race.

However,I'm a skeptic,and believe all questions must remain open. I avoid claims of certainty as much as I can,as does science.

I DO believe it's possible ,even likely he was an historical figure,

In what way? Surely you do not accept the Bible as a credible historical document?

There is no credible historical evidence in ANTIQUITY that Jesus of the Bible ever lived...
