Just so we have some closure, you understand why your "no jesus, no history" argument is laughable to the point of irrelevancy, right? That this sort of statement, this sort of argumentation is -fundamentally incapable- of establishing what you wish to establish?
It's not so much an argument as it is a standard - the argument of ''No Jesus = No History'' is absurd - which is why I did not argue such, the standard however, of ''Evidence for Jesus needs to be a lot whereas other historical figures are not held to the same standard'' was the point; what you did was an oversimplification.
Yes, you did argue that, and it's there for anyone to see...so stop. The contention remains..even in this post, after having distanced yourself from it in the opening sentence..... that if there is not enough evidence for jesus, then there is not enough evidence for [insert pet personage here]. Your statements to this effect could -only- establish how laughably low a given standard may be...not that there was a "historical jesus" or that there was not a "historical hannibal". So it remains-
"no jesus, no history"
Shenanigans.
