Josephus I am not sure of the dates of his material, whether it was all after 33 AD or not.
Roman records record the event of the crucifixtion.
Don't get me wrong, we are all free to choose if we will believe that Jesus was the son of God, but to question the existance on the earth of the man, Jesus seems absurd.

I posted a link above just for you to read...in it was mentioned the following:
The documents that contain a resurrection story[30] are usually dated like this:
Paul:50-55(I Cor. 15:3-8) Mark:70(Mark 16) Matthew:80(Matthew 28) Luke:85(Luke 24) Gospel of Peter:85-90(Fragment) John:95(John 20-21)
The numbers represent the years AD.
Read the article
The point of the article is...Did Jesus exist from a religious standpoint. What proof do you offer that he did? Are you stating that just because you believe that so it is? It appears thats what the Priest in the article said.
