""As it happens, Josephus, who mentions John the Baptist, does not mention Jesus.http://www.siliconinvestor.com/readmsg.aspx?msgid=19347651 "Josephus, the renowned Jewish historian, was a native of Judea. He was born in 37 A.D., and was a contemporary of the Apostles. He was, for a time, Governor of Galilee, the province in which Christ lived and taught. He traversed every part of this province and visited the places where but a generation before Christ had performed his prodigies. He resided in Cana, the very city in which Christ is said to have wrought his first miracle. He mentions every noted personage of Palestine and describes every important event which occurred there during the first seventy years of the Christian era. But Christ was of too little consequence and his deeds too trivial to merit a line from this historian's pen. "And I would add, ignorantly." "The very existence of this thread is an attack on The God of Christians and Jews specifically" "You constantly denigrate and insult all who have the audacity to call you on your bigotry and hate" "Too bad you didn't make this a moderated thread so you could silence all your critics" "I see a great number of your disciples have seemingly abandoned you."
