Theres evidence Jesus existed (excluding The Bible), his name can be traced in bhuddist documents from north-eastern Pakistan I believe, will try and find the source as I remember reading this aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagggggggggggges ago, but whether or not you believe him to be the son of God is a different thing, in Islam they believe him to be a messiah, born in a miracle birth but not the son of god
Historical evidence shows that he did walk among us 2k yrs ago. The Holy Bible, the Torah and the koran acknowledge this.
The koran and Torah says he was only a prophet. They're still waiting for what they concieve as the real deal.
Orthadox Jews believe in him. IMHO, This is the true difference between us. The Old Testemnt on all 3 are very similar., but Jesus coming to us is what changed all the rules. Now instead of the ritual sacrifices and such to attain God's favor, we have only to accept that God loves us so much, he gave us his son, Jesus to be killed in the most horrible way.
The crucifixation is recorded history. All he had to do to avoid his fate was to admit he was not the Messiah. So, unless you were unaware of this, your position is that he is not the Messiah. Help me to understand your mind set please.

Btw he's also mentioned in the autonomous religion of John the baptist's followers, where Jesus is called 'the deciever messiah' (it's uncertain if this is a reference to a person Jesus or the character painted mainly by pauline christians)

You must be referring to the Mandeism.
They hold John the Baptist in high regard, along with a few of the early biblical patriarchs, but consider Jesus, Moses, Abraham as false prophets. Strange.

LOL That’s the best reply you have? The ancient astronaut theory might not be right, but at least they have more evidence to back up their theory than a book. How to you explain all the ancient structures around the world that are over 5K years old? According to your fairy tale, the earth was created 5k years ago.. how do you explain things like fossils? Is SCIENCE a big conspiracy?
For those of you who suggested an ancient aliens thread.. a.) learn how to use the search feature on ATS and you'll find that there are many threads already b.) if you don't like to read, watch the Ancient Aliens series. They are on their 3rd season now. Seasons 1 & 2 total 17 episodes.
After you learn something about the theory, you can start your own thread to debate it. There's a lot of HARD evidence that is SET into STONE to support this theory.

Yes I agree, historical evidence points towards Jesus not being real, nothing more than a Christian construct, a rip off construct at that, from the likes of Osiris and Mithras.

The iconic scenes of Mithras show him being born from a rock
