Indeed, there is a lot more evidence supporting Jesus Christ existed than did Socrates. But unlike Jesus, no one questions the philosophy attributed to Socrates let alone whether he existed at all. It is interesting to ponder the reasons this is so.
Jesus is mentioned many times in the Koran, which I don't think contains a first-hand account, the point being that Christians might not be the only ones ****ed off if the question of mere existence once again becomes a big issue.
