(21,046 posts)We know about Marcus Aurelius, as in "Omnia Gallia divisa est in tres partes." I took Latin in high school and we had to read the stuff these REAL PEOPLE wrote.
We know that Plato and Socrates were real people.
We know that all the Roman Emperors lived.
We know that Prince Siddhartha, Gautama the Buddha lived, 600 years before the alleged Jesus.
There are shrines with his hair, teeth and bone pieces left after he was cremated.
We know about pharaohs. We have mummies and writings in hieroglyphics. The Rosetta Stone talks about Ptolemy (Watch Carl Sagan in COSMOS for that one) which Champollion translated.
So why aren't there any contemporaneous writings about Jesus, or by him, like the Emperors?
You're grasping for proof, HRM. You are grasping air.
