That is three different opinions in three sentences all in the same
paragraph. It took you 5 years of study to have those three conflicting
opinions?
The truth is that you have seen on some internet site a statement that
there
is no evidence for the existence of Jesus and you have accepted it as
true.
It is incorrect.
So, which are you saying is actually your position?
There is little evidence.
That of course is sensible and won't get any argument from anyone sane.
There is no evidence.
That is plainly wrong and will only be agreed with by people rather
unconfident about their opinions.
The various stories about Jesus are all myths.
I don't think many people would argue hard about that, as long as it
is
understood that myths might well contain truths which have been
embellished
in the telling. Just because there is a lot of twaddle about magic being
done does not mean that everything is a lie. The glove didn't seem to fit
OJ, and the racist cop fabricated evidence, but that does not prove OJ
innocent.
