The only verifiable fact is that the Romans were into crucifying people AND there were rebel sects in Judea.

The rest is just really good story telling

That's like saying that trains stations are a verifiable fact of Harry Potter.

Actually they made movies and we have the original text of Harry Potter so … it’s a less credulous statement than that.

Lots of folks getting their panties in a bunch about something they don’t understand, it’s not OUR fault no contemporary peers wrote of this “Jesus” fellow but instead we got tales of a rebel leader inflated over the years.

He’s just John Henry with a couple thousand years to simmer.

Yes by comparison the evidence for Harry Potter is overwhelming.
