You're going to have trouble defending this canard. We have contemporaneous accounts of Socrates from people who are also known to history (Plato, Xenophon, and Aristophanes). Not only are the gospels not contemporaneous, we don't know the authors so absolutely nothing can be known of their sources. Paul cites revelation. I'm not sure where you would go from here to establish that there is more evidence for Jesus than Socrates.
