@iowabuckd more on the 12. These became the 12 most wanted men on earth after the death of Jesus It didn't take the Romans long to catch most of them and their death was very much public and cruel Kinda like in the movie Braveheart all they had to do was admit that Jesus was fake which none did. John managed to escape the Romans untill he was like 85years old and wrote the Book of John which just happens to be the most recent book in the Bible and my fav. If Jesus was a great hoaks and it was all just made up stories REASON would step in and you'd admit to it but he didn't and stood firm it the faith ( gap)
