"I was not taking about only Christian scholars" CRAP!! Show me a non-Christian scholar who believes in the Divine Jesus depicted in the gospels. You cannot. Scholarship does not lead to a belief in a magical Jesus. Indeed, anyone with half a brain can separate primitive myth from history. Virtually every "scholar" who believes in a Divine Jesus was a Christian before they ever entered a school. It is easy to suspect that many educated people who continue to preach kindergarten tales are doing so out of self interest and are intellectual frauds. As for those fundamentalists who continue to believe in a flat earth and all the other primitive stuff scratched out by pre-scientific people...well, they are simply one of the great mysteries of life. Again, EVERY single human who is not a Christian, (whether they be tutored or not) considers the Divine Jesus tales to be mythology. "If you know of so many actual ancient historians who believe that Jesus did not exist then why don't you just cite them?????????" GET REAL!! Contemporaries of Jesus did not even MENTION Him! If He had existed as described decades after His purported life He would have been written about by every human being who was literate enough to write!
