I'm a Hindu that believes in Jesus

Hmm... It's done all the time. Many of the Egyptian pharoah's remains have been confirmed as well as English kings and queens.
Because they were buried with treasure hords in royal tombs with gigantic inscriptions. The average Joe's and Jane's are always unidentifiable as individuated persons in history before modernity.

I have to ask every Jew?! Dude there's 14 million of them.

I can confirm that I didn't find the bones of Jesus in Jerusalem. So you have 13,999,999 more people to ask.
After you have finished , you should ask the Ahmadis who say thet Jesus,Moses and Mary are buried in India.
I'll put the kettle on for your return. :)

While you are at it, there are some Mormons that have an interest in studying family trees.

What I mean is: there are a lot of things that we do not know. That does not at all imply that they are any less real.

Yes, I had to limit the list.

Yes,I think that, if Jesus existed, he may have very well gone to India, had a family etc.

Jesus was hardly an average anything and we know exactly where He was buried. And the treasure horde theory doesn't always apply.

There is more evidence that Jesus existed than there is that Buddha did.
That is simply not at all true.

Buddha left a lot of teachings and direct disciples, including a very large Tipitaka.

Meanwhile Jesus is described in remarkably allegorical terms in four largely mutually referential Gospels that were written decades after his supposed life, from a very few sources that are nearly lost to us, and even then a political decision had to be made to decide which sources to disregard and which to keep.

Love isn't all you need. And the same Apostle that your quote above also told us to be wary of being deceived.
...and well we should.

By smooth talk and flattery
Key bit there. Who is doing the flattering do you suppose? Who can get paid to flatter you, do you suppose? I'm not going to name any names, but you perhaps should be wary of them. I wonder whom it could be and who would try to distract people by scaring them with tales of JW's, Mormons etc. Who could possibly benefit from doing that? Only someone dressed as an angel of light I suppose.

No, but I was hoping you would know and remember them. It is you that had demanded proof, not me.

Remember what?

I asked for proof from you because you made statements of unequivocal fact. That is something I did not do.

Your point?

No, we do not. We do not even have much evidence that he existed at all.

You have never bothered to look, obviously. See post #195. You do realize that it is the year 2017, right? 2017 years after what? Yes, the death of Christ. Certainly not the death of Buddha.

1. Log in to your computer.
2. Go to www.google.com.
3. Put "Where was Jesus buried" in the search bar.
4. Push Go.

Repeat for each subject you wish to know more about.
Google will provide such links for UFO landings and alien abductions as well. Provide the links to sources you consider authentic and we will take a look. You made the claim. You provide us with the reliable sources for your claim.

That is simply all true.

Yes it is. There are more than 23,000 mss use to form the NT. That is more than any records left for anyone else in history. You from personal unbeief, and without any evidence, are willing to reject the gospels as history.

Buddha left a lot of teachings and direct disciples, including a very large Tipitaka.

There is no doubt Buddah lived and was a great teacher, but he did not leave as much evidence a s God did for Jesus. The records of Buddha are much older that the NT mss, why do you accept them andnbot the NT?

Meanwhile Jesus is described in remarkably allegorical terms in four largely mutually referential Gospels that were written decades after his supposed life, from a very few sources that are nearly lost to us
,

AT times Jesus is described in allegorical terms, but most of the time He is not. When He taught in the temple, that is not allegorical; when He performed miracles, that is not allegorical. Evidently you don't understand allegory. It is used to present the subject in a more descripive way and one that can be understood personally.

--I Am the Bread of life----I am the spiritual food that sustains your spiritual life.
--I am the Light of the world---I am the Guide of your spiritual life
--I am the true vine---I am the source of your spiritual life---a branch must be attached to the vine or it will die.

Behold, the Lamb of God---I will be sacrificed for your sins.

and even then a political decision had to be made to decide which sources to disregard and which to keep.

Another statement for which you have no evidence.
