[quote:Rev StarGazer:MV8yMTcwMTUyXzM2NzI4MjQ3X0I5NkJBNUUw] [quote:Anonymous Coward 2183540:MV8yMTcwMTUyXzM2NzI3OTY0XzQ2NjI2OTZG] Can anybody (referring to atheists or anti-Christians) give an example of a historian that WAS recording history around 27-33 AD? Please share. Here's an example of how and when history is recorded. The Greek historian Herodotus, whose work 'The Histories' details the Greek-Persian war, as well as the Battle of Marathon and Thermopylae, wrote his work 40 YEARS after events. History doesnt get recorded until AFTER THE FACT. [/quote] Let us start with Philo-Judaeus (20 BC - 50 AD) Philo wrote an account of the Jews covering the entire time that J.C. is said to have existed on earth. Philo was living in or near Jerusalem when J.C.’s miraculous birth and Herod’s massacre occurred. He was there when J.C. made his triumphal entry into Jerusalem. He was there for the crucifixion and all the world shattering events that followed — earthquakes, the sun becoming dark at noon, the graves opening and the dead and long dead saints roaming about the place., supposedly seen by many, also when J.C. himself rose from the dead and in the presence of many witnesses ascended into heaven, but Philo saw nothing, heard nothing, wrote nothing. Flavius Josephus, the renowned Jewish historian, born 37 AD was a contemporary of the apostles. He was for a time the governor of Galilee, where J.C. lived and taught. Josephus wrote of every important event during the first 70 years AD but J.C. did not get a mention. Later the Josephus writings were interpolated and forgeries which mention J.C. added on. This short forgery was labeled by Bishop Warburton as “a rank forgery and a very stupid one too…” It is mentioned in the Church History, that this was the word of the very dishonest bishop Eusebius. The Catholic Encyclopedia admits that the forged passages were not known to Origen and earlier church writers. Justus Tiberius was a native of Galilee, he wrote a history covering the period of J.C.’s reputed existence. This work was destroyed, but Photius a Christian scholar and critic of the 9th century who was acquainted with it says that Justus made not a mention of J.C. or his wondrous works. There were also interpolations and forgeries in the works of Pliny the younger and historian Tacitus (who was born about 20 years after the purported death of J.C. Due to modern science these are now recognized as forgeries by all scholars both Christian and secular. A total of about 40 to 50 interpolated lines are the only supporting evidence of the existence of J.C. a man-god who supposedly shook up the whole world of that period. The other historians of that time, Arrian, Lucius Seneca (4 BC - 65 AD) Dion Pruseus, Pliny the Elder, Pater Calus, Suetonius, Juvenal, Theon of Smyran, Martial, Phlegon, Persius, Pompon Mela, Plutarch, Quintus Curtius, Lucian, Apollonius, Pausanias, Valerius Flaccus, Quintilian, Forus Lucius, Lucanus, Phaedrus, Epictetus, Damis, Silius Italicus, Alulus Geuius, Statius, Ptolemy, Columella, Diochry Sostom, Hermogones, Lysias, Valerius Maxiimus, Cornelius, Titus Livius, Cluvius Rufus, Publius Petronius (the Roman consul) who lived in Jerusalem. All these heard nothing, not a word was written about J.C. These historians wrote about early religions but never mentioned J.C. or the spectacular events that the church said accompanied J.C.’s life. [/quote]
Original Message
Was Jesus actually a Syrian King? What is the true identity of Josephus Flavius? What did the real 'crown of thorns' look like? What is the King Arthur connection?
In fact, one could go as far as saying that this is the interview that the Catholic Church has been dreading for the last 1700 years and may end Christianity as we know it. And this is not advertising hyperbole, this really is the end of the Christian fairytale that Jesus was a mere pauper artisan.
We now know exactly who Jesus was, and he was far removed from the stereotype pauper imagery we have been told (or sold).
