There is also an answer to the claim "If Jesus existed and was so famous, we should have heard a lot more about him in historical sources outside the New Testament and the Church Fathers". The author makes a point of quoting non-Christian scholars.

wow...is that the best this Christian Minister can do to support evidence that Jesus was a historical person?
The dialogue that Justin and Trypho have takes place in the
2nd century!
That is like someone taking a conversation I have today about an alleged person, let's call him "Pumpkinhead," who I'll claim for my religious motivations allegedly existed in 1900 ... and then people 1800 years from now producing it as evidence of Pumpkinhead!
Where are the records from 1900????
How can my statement 100 years after an alleged existence be considered any sort of evidence?
What a joke.
