See Josephus _The Jewish Revolt_. Josephus was a jew (IIRC a slave) of IIRC Valentinian who comissioned him to write about the above topic. I think its a reliable source as Josephus would have nothing to gain from it, being both a Jew and a Roman slave. He additionally wrote this a mere 30 to 40 years after the death of Jesus, at a time when Christianity was not popular in any way, shape or form. Damon. > Nope.

Try looking at it as allegorical rather than literal, like Aesop's fables. What do you think the message actually is? What lession is the author trying to teach? Actually try thinking about it critically, rather than quipping a hackneyed response.
