Where did the Jesus myth come from?

[Lion IRC]

No evidence for Jesus of Nazareth?

Evidence? Plenty. CREDIBLE evidence and proof? No,none.

See Minimalist? Thats all you have to do. Learn how to say credible, persuasive, believable...these are personal statements of opinion about the evidence.

Thanks padraic!

...However, I am confident that is most likely that the Jesus of the New Testament is myth,with little if any connection to any historical person.

See that Minimalist?
"...I am confident..."

From the Latin : Con-fide
With faith!

And that is something no apologist can refute. padraic is completely entitled to assert that he finds the evidence unpersuasive and he isnt embarrassed to admit that it is subjectively a matter of confidence/likelihood.
