Default Did Jesus Exist?

Do you think the man really existed or is he completely mythic?

Which side of the question do you lean more on: yes or no?

I don't lean either way. I just don't know. So I'm not voting.

Mihilz: you must be new here. This binary choice cannot be answered reasonably. You have to define Jesus. You have to decide how close a historical figure is to the Jesus of the Christian religion to qualify as a historical basis for Jesus Christ. And then, after years of discussion, when you get through defining the question, the answer is going to be "maybe."
