(February 24, 2014 at 6:16 pm)Stimbo Wrote: Is reading comprehension a problem for you? If it is, I can type slower. If you had third-party sources contemporaneous with the alleged events, independent of the single biased source that you do have, it would be reasonable to suppose that those events might actually have taken place. Got any?

(I sense the Fab Four - Josephus, Tacitus, Pliny and Ringo - are about to enter the conversation.)

It is extremely odd that a figure with such societal, political and theological significance would have no supporting account of any description outside that of the Bible. There are figures in history of much lesser contextual importance (everyone) who are documented with far greater consistency and prevalence.

Odd that.
