Just for the record I believe Jesus existed and still does exist. I mentioned before I have personally felt divine intervention in my life. (Yes, I know this makes me a quack)
How come the accounts written by contemporaries, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Peter, Paul, Josephus and others can't be used as historical evidence? Just because they were bound with other books and called the 'Bible' several hundred years later shouldn't render them irrelevant historical documents.
Is it so much easier to prove with greater certainty other figures from antiquity have existed?
