    Tell that to the scholars of antiquity.

    Sure. Hey guys hate to be a buzzkill and I know you have a sweet gig inventing one crazy way after another to make this myth be true but there really isn’t anything here. It is a superstructure with no substructure. Until someone digs up some old letter or something you got nothing.

    because it was falsely claimed that most of them believe that Jesus was a myth.

    I don’t think anyone in this thread did that. I know what they believe, I just don’t care. Again

    • There is no evidence Jesus was a historical person
    • A fraud by the leading apostles could easily fit the data that we have.
    • Humans lie.
    • The narratives disagree with each other to an extent that it sounds very much like liars trying to remember their stories
    • There are things missing in the narratives that should be there.

    In a way I sorta get it. There are like these Sherlock Holmes appreciation groups that have spent all this effort trying to find the historical 221B baker street. It is fun to pretend that a fictional character exists in the real world.
