What's Up Heathens! Today we are looking at Brittany Valadez's video on whether or not you can prove Jesus existed in history using Tacitus. Spoiler:You can't, but she tries really hard.
So she starts off reading the entire passage and I give you the entire context surrounding the passage. The fact that it's not clear if it says Chrestus or Christus. How nobody mentions this passage until some Harry Potter villain in the 5th century. Other historians that were in Rome never mention Nero blaming the Christians. That's not suggesting the entire passage is inserted but more like it was interpolated at some point to say what it does now.
Even if you take Tacitus' passage at face value, then all it does is say that there were Christians in Rome when it burned. It also doesn't explain why Tacitus, a Roman, would reference Jesus with a title rather than his name. Christ or Christos was a title and Chrestus was an actual name.
She then painstakingly goes through the passage sentence by sentence showing how it proves Jesus but it only shows how she reads information into the passage rather than just reading the passage.

Who was Tacitus?Gaius Cornelius Tacitus (56-120 AD), known as 'Tacitus', was a senator and a historian of the Roman Empire. The surviving portions of his two major works: the Annals and the Histories, examine the reigns of the emperors Tiberius, Claudius, Nero, and those who reigned in the Year of the Four Emperors (69 AD). These two works span the history of the Roman Empire from the death of Augustus, in 14 AD, to the years of the First Jewish-Roman War, in 70 AD. Tacitus is considered to be one of the greatest Roman historians.
Who is GOD?In monotheism and henotheism, God is conceived as the Supreme Being and principal object of faith. The concept of God as described by theologians commonly includes the attributes of omniscience (infinite knowledge), omnipotence (unlimited power), omnipresence (present everywhere), omnibenevolence (perfect goodness), divine simplicity, and eternal and necessary existence. In theism, God is the creator and sustainer of the universe In deism, God is the creator, but not the sustainer, of the universe Monotheism is the belief in the existence of one God or in the oneness of God In pantheism, God is the universe itself In atheism, God is purported not to exist, while deemed unknown or unknowable within the context of agnosticism.
