The historians I'm referring to as having a consensus agreement that Jesus was a real person are credentialed by the essentially secular history departments of major universities and colleges. In fact, the scholars I've been citing by name are all well-known outspoken anti-Christian speakers.(August 28, 2012 at 9:51 pm)Atom Wrote: As I said, a good start would be to cite credible peer reviewed historical publications describing how acceptable historical practices lead to the conclusion that Jesus was a myth.

What you call "historians" are NOT historians, but apologists known as "theologians". Of course fan club members are going to pat themselves on the back. Muslim experts also pat themselves on the back in their fan club too.
Christianity is grounded in history, the facts of science, the rules of logic, and verifiable biblical truths.
