[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So it's settled then:

- It is likely a man named Jesus existed
 - There is zero evidence of his divinity

Now the thread is genuinely over, unless someone - explicitly and with evidence - disputes the above.[/quote]

Hahahahahahahaha.

Not ”it is likely.” That goes against the vast consensus among scholars (historians and theologians) that Jesus existed. As the sainted Bart says, only 1-2 scholars out of 2,000-3,000 maintain that Jesus didn’t exist.  How’s your tinfoil hat coming along?

It’s adorable you think that a handful of DCUM randos can settle the issue of Jesus’ historicity in a way that flies in the face of the work of thousands of actual scholars. [/quote]
NP. What is the point of arguing "likely" vs. "certainty"?[/quote]

We’re arguing certainty (the vast scholarly consensus) vs. likely (allowing room, even small, for denial, and the favorite position of 1-2 atheist trolls here). [/quote]
I didn't ask [i]what[/i] the argument was. I asked the [i]point[/i] of the argument.[/quote]
