For People Who Think There Was No Historical Jesus

RE: For People Who Think There Was No Historical Jesus
The problem with your selections regarding the christ is that none of them would have had first hand knowledge of such a person

The most major reason why the "christ" did not exist is that the christ of the NT would have been a complete heretic to the Jewish religion and would have been stoned to death long before any teaching - which would NOT have been allowed. He certainly could NOT have been the jewish messiah - who was supposed to rebuild the Temple of Jerusalem for the third time - the temple was not destroyed yet. The jewish messiah was to be a human of the line of david (Who actually might have existed) - not the son of the god. In fact -to claim that he was the son of god alone would have had him stoned to death.

Tacitus did not live during the supposed life of the christ (Although he probable lived during the time the MYTH was created) - and is of no use.

The New Testament was not written during the supposed time of the christ - and is NOT identifiable as to author with the exception of some things from LUKE and PAUL - neither of which would have ever met the christ either.

OF course - the major reason why nothing you write about the actual existence of the christ is of use is because the christ NEVER actually existed - there is simply no way a single being could have completed all of the varied and contradictory things in the bible - it is a buch of fairy tales.
