In this episode, I discuss what I call "Bad Jesus Apologetics" in reference to this frequently-cited list of facts about Jesus from early non-Christian sources: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1RnQe0g5SNXYY7rpriw-nx7XHwWrThBRS/view?usp=sharing.
The point of this episode is not to say Jesus didn't exist - that is a discussion for another episode. But it is to say that the case for the walking, talking, son-of-God Jesus, especially by considering these sources as reinforcement for the claims of the gospels, has particular issues that most people aren't aware of.
