Christus is not the name jesus.
Amazing that the romans kept records of everything. to this day we know what soldiers were with what legions, how much food they carried, how many horses, ect ect ect.
But the name of a miricle worker doesnt even make it in the records of 31 noted historians.
odd...
Odd how not even the roman soldiers who were sent to collect jesus knew his face but he was supposed to be known throughout the lands.
I know your afraid to accept the reality of it. it must be frigntning to think that all the stories you have been forced fed are nothing but myth stolen from pagans.
since you want to use Wikipedia as a source...
Jesus is mentioned in two passages of the work The Antiquities of the Jews by the Jewish historian Josephus, written in the late first century AD. One passage, known as the Testimonium Flavianum, discusses the career of Jesus. The authenticity of the Testimonium Flavianum has been disputed since the 17th century, and by the mid 18th century the consensus view was that it was at a minimum embellishment by early Christian scribes, if not an outright forgery. The other passage simply mentions Jesus as the brother of James, also known as James the Just. Most scholars consider this passage genuine,[1] but its authenticity has been disputed by Emil Sch�rer as well by several recent popular writers.
Josephus' other major work, The Jewish War, makes no mention of Jesus
At the Vernal Equinox, pagans in northern Israel would celebrate the death and resurrection of the virgin-born Tammuz-Osiris. In Asia Minor (where the earliest Christian churches were established) a similar celebration was held for the virgin-born Attis. Attis was shown as dying against a tree, being buried in a cave and then being resurrected on the third day. We thus see where the Christian story of Jesus's resurrection comes from.
keep swinging johnny come lately. you jesus is just another in the long line of virgin borne executed sun gods. and he IS NOT EVEN near the fron of the line.
never said a man named jesus didnt exist. that would be silly.
The man named "jesus" was probably a hindu priest who brought the ideas of the vedas to the unwashed in the west. and he might have been killed for it. but that was that. he didnt rise from the dead nor was he born of a virgin named mary.
your little stories are so similar to stories proven to be written and told a thousand years prior. do you not see that they are just copied from earlier myths. are you reall that dense as to not be aware of it?
