You usually accept anything coming from Einstein's mouth as proof. I require more but then maybe I'm more skeptical than you. "As a child I received instruction both in the Bible and in the Talmud. I am a Jew, but I am enthralled by the luminous figure of the Nazarene." Have you read Emil Ludwig’s book on Jesus? "Emil Ludwig’s Jesus is shallow. Jesus is too colossal for the pen of phrasemongers, however artful. No man can dispose of Christianity with a bon mot [a witty remark]." You accept the historical existence of Jesus? "Unquestionably! No one can read the Gospels without feeling the actual presence of Jesus. His personality pulsates in every word. No myth is filled with such life.” bonya.wordpress.com

Even if I grant you the fact that he existed, someone had to proclaim him a god, probably himself And I will grant you that I can't prove to you that he is. Therefore it seems silly for you to continue to insist he didn't even exist physically. Seems a desparate thing to me. " the fact Jesus existence is as well or better established as anyone we know from history." That's bullshit and you know it....yes, we have gone through that before and you never did prove your belief. No, its not BS. I've referred you to several modern scholarly works on the reliability of the NT. You are afraid to examine them.
