looked at. the accounts of Josephus Flavius cannot be eye witness accounts but that doesn't mean they were hear say. it's possible he interviewed the apostles themselves. news of Jesus spread everywhere. Jesus met Pontius Pilate. Scissor himself probably heard of him because he was such a contraversial man. if he was made up, they would have at least questioned it back then but they didn't. this has never been the arguement. no one has questioned it until recently. you say all these accounts are out of place and therefore not accurate but is a history book about the civil war written in the 1940's not accurate? most historians believe he existed. even Wikipedia says this.
The Shroud of Turin- this was pointed out as a fraud in 1988 by carbon dating tests, however i saw a history channel show talking about this subject. the sample taken out of the corner of the linen was actually found to be a different material of the rest of the shroud. it was different material and woven differently as well. it was deturmined that this sample taken was one of a patch for repairs done to it in the 15th or 16th centuary. a second sample is awaiting on the church approval to be taken.
again, it's in our textbooks. he existed and there shouldn't be a question of this.

Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war's desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust."
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
