1. It's inconceivable that during the alleged time of Jesus no one bothered to write down anything about this most extraordinary person, yet the extensive historical record of that time makes no mention of Jesus."
I stopped reading here because this is wrong. Very wrong. At least 3 notable historians of the day wrote extensively about Jesus.
Please cite your sources.
Edit: I’m not trying to be difficult here, but as far as I know these historians did not live contemporaneously with Jesus.
Josephus, Suetonius, Tacitus, Pliny the Younger
Jesus (born c. 6–4 bce, Bethlehem—died c. 30 ce, Jerusalem)
Flavius Josephus, (born ad 37/38, Jerusalem—died ad 100, Rome)
Suetonius, (born 69 CE, probably Rome [Italy]—died after 122)
Tacitus (born ad 56—died c. 120)
Pliny the Younger, (born 61/62 ce, Comum [Italy]—died c. 113, Bithynia, Asia Minor [now in Turkey])
None of these authors/historians provided a first hand account of Jesus.
Dates come from Britannica.
Yes josephis speaks of him a lot.
Tacitus was born over 50 years after the death of Christ
Way too long afterwards for a historian. /s
