From what I understand the historical records do seem to suggest Jesus was crucified by the Romans. We also know that Socrates was sentenced to death by poisoning.
The difference is you believe in some unsubstantiated magical re-appearing act pulled off by one of them, which is not exta-biblically supported. That would be like me saying we have historical records the Socrates took the hemlock and died but there is one book by the Bloo-loon society who believe he came back from the dead with a giant hole through his middle clearly indicating he wanted us all to worship donuts. That's how fucking silly your religion sounds to me.
Stop conflating fact with your fictions in an effort to prop them up, it's painfully transparent and frankly juvenile.

Now now now, no need to take any personal jabs here. The thread is only to establish the existence of Jesus, we haven't got to the heavy stuff yet. If you agree that Jesus existed as a person in human history in even the slightest way, then we at least agree on that part...so therefore I don't expect to hear from you any more in this thread since you agree with me. There just simply isn't any more to discuss at this time.
