  • You can be perfectly skeptical of the miraculous claims about Jesus, but he’s about as well attested in history as Alexander the Great.

    That is a blatant lie, and it shows great ignorance of the facts of the matter and the historical method in general since you chose as an example one of the best documented persons of the period. We have lots of contemporary direct evidence of the existence of Alexander the Great: epigraphy, coinage, archaelogy and transmitted written sources by contemporary authors.

    We have no such contemporary evidence for Jesus at all. So no, your argument is nonsense and not how history works. The consensus of the existence of a Jesus is based on secondary evidence, which makes it very likely that he existed, but historians can never certify that with absolute certainty the way that they can with Alexander the Great.

    Edit: Oh my, you edited your comment to not read what you claimed when I replied to you. But in your edit you did not ackowledge my reply to you blatantly incorrect claim, you just slightly edited it, to read something else, which is also incorrect.

    Wow, you really want to be right about this even though your cause is a lost one, even to the point of being disingenous and lying about your previous comment and not acknowledging that your comment was wrong.

    Why you would do such a thing, lying and editing your comment without acknowledging your mistake, is something only you would know the reason for. We know how much your word is worth now.
