[Alter Kaker]

Never read any of Tacitus's work I presume.

Tacitus lived over a hundred years after the time Jesus was supposed to have lived. As such, he's no more reliable than you would be writing of your memories of Abraham Lincoln.

I'm not saying there was no Jesus, just that there's no direct evidence outside of the Christian Bible.

Yes, you are trying to say just that.

I'm not saying there was no macro evolution, just that there's no direct evidence... it's a matter of faith.

I believe in a God that makes ther laws of physics, and can just as easily make the sun stand still, and the earth not fly apart! He speaks, and universes appear! He whispers, and man is banished from Eden... wherever that might be!

In the beginning, God...

Tacitus was born 20 odd years after the cruxifixtion took place not over a hundred. Heck the Annals were written around 109AD. The cruxifixtion took place around 30 AD. 109-30 does not equal over hundred years.

Why would a Roman Emperor commission someone to write a biography about a person who claimed He was the Son of God? Do you understand Jesus teachings ran contrary to the Roman Empire. Again why would the Romans want to market Jesus Christ message? Romans were trying hard to suppress Jesus not give His followers ammunition.
