Writing as a genuinely non-scholarly atheist, cher stein, can you teach me whether a scholarly array has confirmed the existence of "an entirely human mortal" Heracles, who lived and died (one imagines that all death is final, therefore "emphatic") sometime a thousand years before the 1st century CE?
Obviously it's more 'parsimonious' to assume Heracles really existed...
