? So was Jesus a real historical figure or not?[/quote]

Hopefully, you do not expect a definitive answer here on DCUM.  Look it up, as they say. And keep in mind that "real historical figure" does not mean "son of god" - just that there is evidence that the person once lived -- like Ben Franklin, or Henry the 8th, or you, assuming you have a valid birth certificate.[/quote]

It’s impossible to [i]definitively[/i] prove he was a real person.

There is some circumstantial evidence though that shows he was [i]most likely[/i] a real person.

So what?  There's compelling evidence that Ben Franklin, Henry the 8th and presumably you were real people. There's no evidence that anyone is supernatural - it's beyond science and thus requires faith to believe it.[/quote]
