(October 31, 2012 at 5:09 pm)Minimalist Wrote: Neither Tacitus nor Josephus, in their discussions of the run up to the Great Revolt make any mention of a faction known as xtians in Jerusalem.

Josephus sees fit to mention the Essenes, who he estimates to number about 4,000 but not xtians?

Your xtians seem to be as invisible as your god.
Josepus was AFTER the the alleged life, so hardly a first hand account. And mention of Tactus is bogus too, because Romans were not only great senus takers, they would have their own independent written accounts of this alleged magic man, but Christians would have you believe they overlooked him. That would be like a republican skipping the chance to impeach a democrat.

But again, still bull in any case. Babies are not born of virgins and human flesh does not survive rigor mortis, so the second hand hearsey of Josepus is bologna.

We can prove that George Washington existed, but no sane person would claim he could fart a full sized Lamborginni out of his ass.
