Yes, all i'm saying is that its silly to argue about the fine points of Jesus's life when there is no contemporary evidence at all that any of it happened. We know for instance many other things about that time period, but nothing about Jesus written during his supposed lifetime.

The closest thing we have is a breif mention by Josephus, written several decades after jesus would have died.. but even this is textually disputed; there is some evidence that it may have been added by later scribes or translators.

But of course you have morons who dont even question this stuff, and act as though everything in the NT can be taken at face value. Just because a text is "old" or traditionally accepted doesnt mean it is reliable.
