Thread 17927905

Why do people get so hysterical about Christian and Greek/Roman primary sources? Is this some mental illness? You study history by using primary sources. I don't know if they ever taught you this in high school, but the point is to read between the lines and parcel out what is true (through your own attempt at being unbiased). Normally these people are extremely hysterical and emotional because they hate Christians, Greeks, or Romans, etc. but you do occasionally see a few groypers or BAPtards going the opposite route of taking a primary source at face value (like Tacitus' Germania or Rigord's account of the Jews in Paris).

>what is true (through your own attempt at being unbiased

what if it is all true and you are dismissing parts due to your own bias while believing you are unbiased?

I'm not the person who wrote the primary source so. However cool it would be to possess the body and mind of a medieval or ancient Greek historian.

Show me historical proof Rabbi Yeshua existed

>>17927941
The Bible is all the proof you need.

>>17927941
You're breathing.

>>17927925
you are rewriting it as a professor does to an essay submitted by a student, while basically having no real life experience at all. preposterous

>>17927968
You are being unserious.

>>17927969
no, I'm not. history acts way more serious than it really is. it's just stories

The main lesson: Do not let your emotions get the better of you.
