We are dealing with matters of truth here. Either something is true or it

Ok, I find this direction interesting. Is there any proof of the existance
of Jesus other than the Bible?
The evidence is very sparse. The gospels actually hint that he may be a
mythical figure. But really - who *WAS* documented extensively in those days
other than Roman leaders? Josephus mentions his life but also mentions he
had a brother (forget the name).
