101. should I write it in crayon?
I don't know how to make this more simple and clear.

If no one is writing any histories in Judea in this era, how could there be any written history that speaks of Jesus? Obviously, there can't be.

So when you or burtworm complain about the lack of a written record of his life, consider that there are no written contemporaneous histories IN EXISTENCE in Judea in that time. There is not only no histories of Jesus extant, there is no histories of anything else, either.

Therefore, the lack of a written record proves nothing, except that there is no written record.
