[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All of those ancient dudes probably existed too. [/quote]

Who denies those ancient dudes? Do you know any scholar, historian, or professor who denies any of them actually existed? Where are you getting probably from? Is there question any of those men named in the articles existed?

Do you personally deny any of them existed? What do you believe takes the historical certainty of these men existing at 100% in the historical, cultural, and academic fields down to probably for you?

Nobody ever explains why they doubt the historical existence of these people. Your education and critical thinking skills are superior? You have historical data that nobody else knows about?

If you want to say these men probably existed and go against the entire academic world, the entire world of ancient history- what makes you say that?[/quote]

No, I don’t deny they existed. In fact, I said they probably existed. It’s just the nature of ancient history. Without physical evidence, it’s just someone’s interpretation of events. People are fallible.

As that Barbour dude said: 
History is not objective; it is seen as subjective because one is dealing with the humanities and there is a level of personal involvement.

Nobody says probably but you. You aren’t a historian, an academic, or a scholar? What is your educational background and experience to judge the historicity of any person? It really matters. It matters you have evidence to support your probably. Randos who just contribute doubt about the work and research of scholars don’t count at all. You are basically a conspiracy theorist.

Socrates: We don’t have coins minted in his name or other epigraphy testifying to his existence. We have no primary evidence for him. (By primary evidence I mean evidence that is physically contemporary with him.)

NP. Not sure who is replying to who anymore but it’s clear there was someone questioning the validity of non-secular accounts of Jesus’ crucifixion by questioning the historical validity of the accounts. Another post provided similar examples of historical figures widely accepted as true but with less documented evidence than for Jesus.

Again, PPs have no identified themselves but it seems like one PP denies the accuracy of Jesus accounts by questioning who accepts them as valid and another PP supports evidence of other historical figures with an of course they are real without questioning the accounts or who accepts them.
