Well, the atheists argue that the mention of Christ in Josephus was a later interpolation inserted by the Evil Christians.

. . . just like those atheists who do the "Jesus Project" claim that any mention of miracles or deity was a "later interpolation".

Easy to disprove anything if you can just throw out the evidence you don't like . . .

Exactly right. As I stated in post # 60, "If 'the Church' added Christ's life to Josephus' book and he really did not exist, then how exactly did that Christian Church come into being?

Definitely is a technique that's used by many. Remember that the word of women eyewitnesses didn't count in court testimony back in Jesus' time?
