I imagine therefore, you've never heard of Pliny the Younger? Nor Suetonius, Tacitus or Josephus. Before you make yourself out to be a bit of a short sighted arrogant character, do a little background research. There is evidence of the life of Christ, it's pretty hard evidence but a good proportion of it is from around a century after Jesus' time, therefore some historians believe that it may or may not have been lost in translation. However that does not mean there is 'no' evidence. I can quote some if you like.

Edit: Hell, Nero actually burnt Christians in AD 64, just 30-40 years after Jesus' time.
