I guess this means that Koukash isn't bigger than Jesus yet?

He starts with one big advantage, and that is he exists

Hmmm...I can see your point. However, although I haven't seen him with my own eyes, and I would prefer to believe otherwise, I'm convinced that Koukash is a real person. Perhaps, one day, you'll become a believer as well....

Dr Koukash (businessman), is indeed real.

Mrs Koukash (businesswoman), & Jesus are not.

Presumably, you believe that Julius Caesar is not real either given the vastly inferior documentary evidence for his existence than the other JC? Of course, WHO Jesus Christ was is an entirely different matter. Even Richard Dawkins has grudgingly had to admit that Jesus existed as a historical person.

Good come back

In fairness, it got what it deserved.

Wrong.


He wasn't 'grudging' at all. In fact he speaks highly of Jesus as an early religious reformer.

Anyway - enough thread drift. Back to discussing MK rather than JC please.

I doubt there's more evidence than there is for Julius Caesar, but there was (pretty) certainly a dude called Jesus knocking about and leading a religious group. Whether he was the Son of God or had any interest in the Bradford Bulls is more controversial. We should get back on topic, or I'll end up going on about the Council of Chalcedon; miaphysite, dyophysite and Monophysite. Or Gnosticism and Arianism. That is a threat.





If Koukash wants his wife's bid to be seen as independent, he should try to avoid 'we' and 'our'. And let/encourage Mrs K to make a couple of statements in which she says 'I' a few times. If necessary a bit of coaching to deal with any questions a clever dick journalist might throw at her, would be handy. or just do it as written press releases.

Except the documentary evidence includes documents actually written by Caeser such as the Gaelic Wars, which are considered a classic of latin literature. Or that contemporary historians wrote about him at the time he was alive.

Unlike Jesus, who the documentary "evidence" that exists for him was written way after the fact.
