No but then they're aren't humans living in a specific period of history we can pinpoint they're gods/fabled heroes in some kind of dream time. We know where abouts Jesus lived when he was born and when he died you don't get those details with Apollo.
Yet you insist that "jesus" was? In spite of the fact that no one living at the time ever heard of him?
Quote:Maybe Pliny classed things like resurrection and miracle stories as superstition so didn't bother to mention them.
He mentions hymns and communal meals but fails to mention that they worship a guy who was executed by a Roman magistrate? Really? Don't you think a couple of Roman aristocrats would have found that amusing?
