So tell me which of those 30 manuscripts should we expect Philo to have mentioned Jesus? Perhaps give a list of the top three candidates.
Which of his books should have mentioned Pilate the Governor of Judea and Tiberius the Emperor of Rome?
Philo mentioned Pilate and Tiberius and there is NO book by Philo called "On Emperors and Governors"
Which of his books should have mentioned Carrabbas the MAD MAN?
Philo mentioned in details an event surrounding a LUNATIC called Carrabbas where the Crazy man was crowned like a King.
Philo did NOT write a book "On Carrabbas"
Philo remembered to include the Acts of a Crazy man but somehow forgot to write about Jesus who was supposedly accepted by Jews as a Human Sacrifice of a Murdered victim in order to ABOLISH the Laws of the Jews with regards to Sacrifice of animals for Atonement of Sins.
Philo was a Jew and did NOT write that Jews accepted the HUMAN Sacrifice of Murdered victims.
The fact that Philo did NOT mention, Jesus, the disciples and Paul CANNOT diminish the argument that Jesus, the disciples and Paul are Fiction characters
Once Jesus, the disciples and Paul did NOT exist the writings of Philo would have looked PRECISELY as it is found without a single reference to any of them.
There is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING in Philo to diminish the argument that Jesus of Nazareth baptized by John was a Fiction character.
