Which proves that a wandering rabbi by the name of Jesus of Nazareth existed at that time and founded a religion. It doesn't prove that he was the Son of God, or that he was crucified and rose again on the 3rd day, or that any of the miracles described in the Bible are true. -- "There's no such thing as 'cool'.
