Is there evidence for Jesus Christ? Many atheists and people on the internet today try to argue that there is "no evidence for Jesus Christ". But this is disingenuous. They ignore all the evidence and spout off their incorrect assumptions.

        1. Christians were willing to die for their beliefs

        3. Christian cult offshoots - Gnosticism

        4. Few Roman histories of Jesus Himself? why do you think?
        The Romans wanted to minimize the effect of Jesus and His followers
        They would not have wanted to record the Christian movement, or the works of Christ
        However, Tacitus DOES record a small bit about Christ and the Christians
