I'm Jewish and have been told very angrily that I killed Jesus more than once. It's fun.

There isn't any and even the discussions in the wiki on the historicity of jesus are full of arguments to authority.

It can be summed up as, "People who have made their livelihood around a potentially fictitious persons of history all claim that said person exists because reasons."
this conversation is split into so many parts im just trying to chase down this one key point: it's not enough to say "well I don't believe them" - I want to be proved wrong here, for my own education. But I want to be proved wrong - with proof. Not just a throwaway comment of "they have not met my (undefined, and unexplained) threshold of proof"
What do you have to show that Jesus didnt exist as a real human? That isn't your own belief or thought process as your primary source?
You can't be proved wrong. Noone can ever prove that someone never existed, but you can prove that someone did exist. If you have such proof for the existance for jesus, please share it.
Robin Hood, William Tell, Homer, John Henry, King Arthur, Pope Joan and Mulan beg to disagree.
Or rather, they would if they existed. All of which are easily Googlable
Paul Bunyan is a better analogy
