130. Really no proof

Except for the bible, you have no other support for the assertion that Jesus really existed. Titus Livius, Plutarch of Chaironeia, P. Cornelius Tacitus, Thucydides, all ancient historians at various times after Jesus, fail to mention Jesus, except for a few vague references. No remains, no artifacts supporting his presence, save for the shroud of Turin and the recent ossuary box of James, both fakes.

Belief in the message of Jesus requires a belief in his existence. Without further proof, those without your belief, tend to view his existence with skepticism.
