Hi Pete,

I know what you are looking for so, let's cut through the chase. Please note that I am not necessarily endorsing all of this.

This precious gem of learning I found inside the document (emphasis mine):

Quote:

I must now deal with the references to Paul in the Eusebian literature —that is, the Church History and the list of "Illustrious Men." And here a series of literary falsehoods must be sharply contradicted. It is in the Latin List of Illustrious Men, or Catholic writers, that the name of Eusebius occurs.[v] This list was published during the Age of Publication, commonly called the "sixteenth century;"

Jirir,

You haven't read nearly far enough if that causes you to roll your eyes. Wait till you get to the part where Martin Luther knew Paul.

I have now added:

Francesco Carotta's Jesus was Caesar
- On the Julian Origin of Christianity – an investigative report
(2005)

Julius Caesar, son of Venus and founder of the Roman Empire, was elevated to the status of Imperial God, Divus Julius, after his violent death. The cult that surrounded him dissolved as Christianity surfaced.

A cult surrounding Jesus Christ, son of God and originator of Christianity, appeared during the second century. Early historians, however, never mentioned Jesus and even now there is no actual proof of his existence.

On the one hand, an actual historical figure missing his cult, on the other, a cult missing its actual historical figure: intriguing mirror images.
