You simply cannot discard evidence for Lord Jesus Christ.
Lucian
Pliny the younger
Josephus
St. Ignatius of Antioch.
Tacitus
Suetonius
Aristides
Galenus
Lampridius
Watch me, fuckhead. Pliny, Suetonius, Tacitus, & Galenus never heard of any fucker named "jesus." Pliny and Suetonius probably were talking about Chrestians not Christians and Tacitus is a much later forgery and even the forgery only mentions "Christus". Galen knew of xtians and christ which figures since he died in the 3d century.
Lucian was a second century satirist making fun of xtians but well after Justin Martyr had started writing. You left out Celsus who also knew of xtians and thought very little of them. We can forgive you for skipping over him although as a mid to late second century writer he does serve to place the development of this xtian mythology into that time period.
Josephus is a bald-faced forgery by Eusebius or some scribe in his employ. Doubtlessly embarrassed by the failure of the godboy to make any mark on history.
Aristedes' "apology" proceeds from a 6th century religious novel which was later cobbled into Syriac. It is a speech given to one of the characters.
Ignatius of Antioch is pseudoepigraphic horseshit, like the pastoral epistles of "paul." http://www.bible.ca/history-ignatius-for...-250AD.htm
Aelius Lampridius is far too late historically to be of any significance.
How come you didn't trot out Mara ben Serapion? Fuckheads like you usually shit your pants claiming that he was talking about your godboy.
Are you slipping?
