If Jesus was real why is he absent from any historical texts?

You do realize it's been 2,000 years right? :pachaha:


Judea was a backwater equivalent to West Virginia in America , under Roman administration. So there would be no real reason to keep records of some manger brat causing trouble.

Especially because the paper records were kept on papyrus which rots. And only the nobility got records of themselves carved in metal or stone. This is made even worse because the literacy rate in the first century was 3% among jews, so even fewer hands were capable of documenting history


To give you an example of what I mean, Historically speaking there's only two pieces of evidence that say the Roman governor of the region, Pontious Pilate , ever existed. And these ones only survived because one of them was a ring made of gold and the other one was a literal carved rock. So if the whole noble governor of Jesus' province is barely remembered 2000 years later, why the hell would some random death row convict be remembered? :francis:
Ancient Kemet predates christ by tens of thousands of years but we know everyone that ever ruled there was real. :yeshrug:

There is evidence that Jesus existed.

Frontline has a really interesting documentary on the rise of Christianity and Christ that you can find probably on YouTube for free.

I'm not a Christian but found it very well done regardless.
Jesus story wasn't unique to Christiany.


Same historian shuts down theory of his existence.

Because he never existed

Not only did he exist.. he currently walks earth at this very moment. Been reincarnating as different vessels for quite some time now. It’ll be revealed very soon & also.. his name isn’t Jesus this time around :sas2:

Jesus became martyred after his death so his reputation grew bigger after the fact. While he was alive all of his legendary moments was among a minority not the majority. Constantine the great is the reason for Christianity's global popularity. Once Constantine took interest, the bandwagon jump started right there.
he was a rapper:ohhh:

"No historical context outside of the Bible" as if word of mouth and passing down by the generations is insignificant..

No one has historical record of a wheel being created, yet it was passed down for 4000 years and used by all of us today..

ever consider Jesus chose that period to exist in human form so there wasn't an official record so your choice to believe was personal and not forced via historical records outside of the Bible, videos and photos?

edit: fixed for the intentional dense readers
