In an earlier post, I argued that the historicity of Jesus was doubtful. Some religion scholars questioned one of my sources. Now, recent scholarship comes as close as possible to settling the issue.
Are statements about history true because they reflect what happened or because people at a later date said so?
If argument ad populum does not work why would you use it instead of just presenting your evidence for a historical Jesus? Me personally I noticed that people lower themselves to logical fallacies when they don’t have facts.
Virtually every historian of the time period, religious and secular, agree that Jesus the man did exist.

Could just answer the questions instead of depending on someone else to do the work.
Question 1: Are statements about history true because they reflect what happened or because people at a later date said so?
Question 2: If argument ad populum does not work why would you use it instead of just presenting your evidence for a historical Jesus?
Pretty simple questions, maybe just answer them.
