I am curious where you get this idea. Outside of the Bible (or a book written using the Bible or about the Bible), would you please show documented records that Jesus truly existed?

Tacitus mentions Jesus as well. I don't remember which book, but I have it at home. I don't know the latin reference but in the english translation He was called, "Crestus", or something very close. Tacitus writes there were riots in Rome at the time of His Crucifixion.

I'm surprised this thread is still here.

Glenn Kimball mentions that. He says that the dead were resurrected and walking around all over Rome, which was disruptive to peace and commerce, as one might imagine.
