  1. There is no consenus of the exact date, but it doesn't matter anyway. First establish whether such an esteemed person ever existed. There is no evidence of any such person as Jesus, except those names of Jewish rebels, since Yeshua was a common name at the time, mentioned by Flavius Josephus. Once we eliminate the secular records concomitant with Jesus' alleged time line, there is nothing left to go on. The accounts mentioning the Christian Jesus come at least 30 or more years later, just enough time to create a literary story by topology, which cannot be used as evidence or proof. There is not a shred of evidence or proof for the existence of the Christian godman. All accounts are second hand and third hand, there is no historical Jesus in the Pauline epistles the oldest writings, and the claim that they "were telling the truth because they were ready to die...." is a cop out.
