Josephus's mention of him was clearly forged by later Christians, probably Eusebius in the 4th century given the fact that there is no evidence such a passage existed in Josephus before Eusebius makes mention of it. Christians were already known to forge things like this, as we see in Origen who falsely asserts Josephus says the death of James (supposed brother of Jesus) is the reason for the destruction of the Temple.
Tacitus doesn't mention a "Christus" instead he mentions a "Chrestus" which is a completely unrelated person.
Sorry Xians, your religion is fake. It was made up by the Romans who created a peasant cult to halt rebellions. I suggest you get over your sky daddy and come and join us in the real world.
Am i still banned here? If not youre a winnie the pooh idiot op. Romans making up christianity makes no winnie the pooh sense. Get your head out of your ass and wipe the shit out of your ears.

You really have no idea how the ancient Roman Empire worked, do you?
Obviously the creator of the universe didnt descend to this one planet to save this one species. Im not arguing that. The romans didnt just make christianity up. Some jew named Jesus existed and people loved that he told them they could be weak little cucks and get rewarded for it in the next life. And then the byzantines used it to centraluze religious power.

I have plenty of arguments, just take a look at the first image. We invented science, you're just an ignoramus that doesn't know history.
Debatable, not doubting that the great physicists of our time are brilliant, but you're hardly one of them. You are a literal follower, probably on a worse scale than us Christians since at least we get something out of following our God, a sense of fulfillment. You on the other hand, are such an embarrassment that the best thing you can think to do with your time is to disturb this humble Italian Rosary crafting forum on the internet. Go get a job, and stop hanging around your mom's basement.

None of you have even attempted to refute my OP, because you cannot. You have no arguments, only personal attacks and cringe worthy shit memes. You guys are such pathetic idiots.
Connor Sanchez
You're gonna have to come up with something better than dead memes, buddy.
What a awful thread. OP should be ashamed of himself.

You deny the historical evidence of Christ, because you don't want him to exist. You say that Christian forged the text of Josephus's, while being blind that there was no reason a Christian would forge a text of Josephus's. You mention Tacitus,while not mentioning that most historians consider his text as aunthentic. And to end in a good light, you a throw a Conspiracy Theory that the Romans created Christianity, while not showing any proof whatsoever, and then you throw an Ad Hominem.
Elijah Gutierrez
Yes, Romans created Christianity… only to end up getting swallowed up by it, and destroying all of their gods, entertainment venues, economical channels, and other past times and traditions. Makes sense.
Lincoln James
Do you have a single fact to back that up? Because he is a real human being.
