    The only evidence of Jesus, is a few random mentions of someone named Jesus.

    And it wasn’t exactly a rare name.

    Like, if I found written evidence of a dude named Paul, that doesn’t mean Paul Bunyan was real.

    It just means some dude named Paul was real.

    All the crazy claims about being a Messiah wasnt until long after he was dead.

      This isn’t really right. The primary texts corroborate more facts than the name: that he was put to death by the Romans for inciting disloyalty.
