For someone that did a great deal of miracles, or even 'party tricks' that got amped up, I find it suspicious that no one of his time had the slightest thing to say about him.

These references: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Historicity_of_Jesus

I too find it suspicious that nobody else mentioned his miracles, but that doesn't automatically mean he never existed. Far more likely is that that stuff was made up or exaggerated after he died.

Yeah but what I'm getting at is that if there was this average Joe by the name of Jesus, how is it that something like the New Testament is produced but no one even documents this guy that had his 15mins of fame... Which then turned into 2000 years thanks to the scandal that is the NT?
