Objective evidence for the existence of Jesus Christ?

The somewhat longer answer is that there is no reference among first century Greco-Roman or Jewish writers even to a rumor of a dead criminal coming back to life.

The fact that later xtian writers (Eusebius) tried to create such historical references with forgeries into other works is evidence that there were no authentic references to begin with.

How do you view the fact that the oft quoted consensus is in favor of a historic jesus (whatever that means)
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
Psalm 14, KJV revised edition
