But, if you are trying to say that because Herod and Pilate are "real" that automatically means that your godboy also existed you are out of your fundie mind. Let me try and put this into some sort of context for you before you make more of a fool of yourself.
Gone With The Wind is a novel. It is fiction. Yes, there was an American Civil War, the city of Atlanta was burned, there were blockade runners and Robert E. Lee commanded the Confederate Army but these handful of facts DO NOT make Gone With The Wind into a true story. Likewise, some shithead writing a story about your carpenter coming back to life does not make it true because Herod, Pilate, or anyone else a real person.
You really need to learn what "fiction" entails.
Since you're an atheist, how do you know about Philo and Josephus?
