[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is no need to ask this on an internet message board.  There is an abundance of real scholarly information explaining the likely origins - all of it very compelling and not that complicated.  Once you've read it, it's pretty hard to imagine that Jesus was in fact a historical figure.  Just do some real research instead of listening to a bunch of random people on the internet.  [/quote]

Still, you're expressing your opinion based on the reading/research that you've done.  Others could and do have a different opinion.

Also, some people conflate "historical" with proof of divinity.  It is no such thing.  It's simply likelihood of having existed.

For instance, there is no doubt about the historical George Washington or that he was the 1st president of the US.  It's all well documented at a time, not so long ago, when such important events were well documented.

No one is saying that Washington was a god, but if they did, there is no way for history to record a supernatural event. History only deals with facts.

Can't say the same about Jesus.[/quote]
