One person tried to claim that there were contemporaneous accounts of Jesus, and gave several examples of non-contemporaneous accounts. When that was pointed out, the poster vanished.
Meanwhile, Bible "archaeologists" are digging away hard in hopes of finding some actual evidence. They've been doing that for a long, long time, without any results. Since two millennia have passed, finding such a thing is about as unlikely as people flying up into the sky in the Rapture.
And yet, they persist, all the while claiming that faith is all they need. If that were true, the hunt would have long been over.
As I have said many, many times, the basic premise of all theistic religious logic is that God exists. Since there is zero evidence for such a statement, everything else breaks down in their arguments. There is no logic to theism. It is all a giant circle, leading back to that first unsupported premise that posits a real deity that exists or existed.
Without evidence of its existence, there's no support for anything else having to do with a god or gods.
Faith. They have that, but that's paper thin and transparently unsupported.
