On this page the writer quotes 5 other (non-biblical) texts that make reference to Jesus:

I find this whole thing fascinating

Reference #1: Refers to "Christus" and was written 60 years after Jesus' supposed crucifiction.

Reference #2: Was written over a century after Jesus supposed crucifiction.

Reference #3: Refers to "Chrestus" and was written 120 years after jesus supposed crucifiction.

Reference #4: Mentions an allusion to Christ. No quote included. 200 years after Jesus' supposed crucifiction.

Reference #5: Highly disputed. Josephus was born 37 years after Jesus' crucifiction.

I'm not even going to go into the fact its on Geocities.

You wouldn't make much of a scholar!
