An interesting twist on the literary search for jesus. Rather than look at the documents which mention jesus, what about the ones which don't.

Don't worry, believers will read just the part about the mention of JC is one of those books and ignore everything else, and will claim that one partial sentence is the indisputable proof of JCs existence.

Another interesting point is that it says in the same article that most modern day historians believe he did actually exist from about 7 BC to 33 AD. There must be some compelling reasons for that.

At least -one- very compelling reason Lek, their mortgages.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

LOL....Lek,

Do you have access to their evidence? Don't be stingy, let's see it.

He lived until 33 AD? AD meaning After Death?
