All this coming from one of the few "smart people" on the planet that actually believes that Jesus never existed! The consensus among serious historians (religious or not) is ironclad as is the mountain of evidence that exists. Does Boris believe that Plato existed? How about Cesar Augustus? What about Socrates? Has Boris ever questioned the voracity of the Galic Wars or Homer's Iliad? OF COURSE NOT! But why??? SIMPLE: those issues have nothing to do with the fact that Boris needs to reject the divine like other so-called intelligent men, many of whom are scientists, because the thought of God is just too much to bear. WHY? That implies an overarching TRUTH that they may need to be concerned with, and since their "deeds are dark" and they don't want to hear that, they simply choose to rebel, regardless of the facts that "are plain to them". In the end, BORIS the AWESOME and VERY INTELLIGENT AGNOSTIC is the fool. How sad.
