A guy named Thomas thought the same way. Right up until the moment that he put his fingers into the nail wounds in Jesus' hands.

Quote:The bible paints a picture of a world in which Jesus was extraordinarily well known and was a major player of the time, yet HC'rs have trouble with evidence of even a bit part jesus.

Um...no.

Jesus was a peasant of little interest to the Romans who controlled most of the known world including the dusty little corner of their empire known as Judea. That there is any mention of Jesus at all in the non-biblical records of the day is a truly remarkable thing.
