Yes. If he didn't exist, don't you think the Romans and Jews who hated him would bring that up?

if you would like to show even flakey as fuck evidence this dude existed, i will show you how he didnt. then you will not be able to respond to it, like nobody else ever has. ive done this for years, not one person can deal with it. if you can, lets hear it. i will gladly admit im wrong.

Abscence of evidence is not evidence of abscence. There's no evidence of almost everyone from ancient times.

The only people we have evidence of are major figures. Not the average Joe, which Jesus likely was during his lifetime.

so jesus wasnt a major figure? there is plenty of evidence of real people way before him. there is no real evidence of big J aside from the bible, which...we know what that means.
