The question that shatters faith, forever.

[Tiberius]

Isn't it convenient that enough documents were preserved to convince you?

Not really, no. I like to follow where the evidence points me, and as far as I am aware, the general consensus among scholars is that Jesus existed in some form. The whole "jesus myth" is more of a conspiracy than anything, relying on dodgy facts and outright lies in order to get their point across. I tend not to support or give credibility to people who use such tactics.

If he wasn't that average then all the more reason to expect at least one mention by a credible source.

I've often wondered too if the Romans destroyed documents to do with Christianity. Surely there would be historians that documented that if it were the case. I don't actually know.

I think a lot of history was lost back then. That doesn't change the fact that Christianity very quickly expanded after Jesus' death, and has lasted until this day.
