The topic could center around "how does one distinguish between an actual biography and a mere fable?"
I mean, there are ancient bios out there that we all accept without pause, so might be worthy of exploring. Philosophy section?
That's a very good question dear..especially when Plutarch was writing of mythological characters like Theseus and Romulus.
Of course, even Plutarch never bothered with the alleged "jesus." He died around 120 AD and apparently the whole jesus-thing hadn't gotten rolling by then.
