Historical Jesus, Biblical Jesus

[Minimalist]

"Truth" is not my position. My position is, and always has been, the best argument to explain the evidence.

As long as you don't have to think outside your comfort zone.  There is nothing scary out there.  None of this shit is real.  No one ever learned anything by saying "I know I'm right and I don't have to think anymore."

That's the difference between you and me. My only claim here is the argument for historicity is better than non historicity.

But you make a positive claim of truth with "Jesus didn't exist," a claim of absolute knowledge.

Yes, I know.  Why should you ever consider the possibility that you were mistaken?  Why, that might upset your whole view of yourself.  That seems to scare the shit out of you.
