Jesus was a Son of God which something we dont understand bc he was literally perfect before something of Earth was even formed. To fullfill a Godlike divine mission he came to earth as a man....lived on earth and died on earth as a man. You cant become any more perfect if you are already perfect but you can grow indefinitely in experience. Rather than being just a God he is now the Son of God, Son of Man=something greater...Its as if reality itself sent a being to portray the loving attitude of the highest of all most highs all the way down to the lowest of all low's mankind
There's no evidence because it was so long ago. But I'm not such an adamant person that I would deny the existence of Jesus. I don't care if he existed or not, but there is no proof.
...because the guy that devised the BC/AD system in the 6th century didn't want to continue the old system as it continued the memory of a Roman tyrant (Diocletian) who persecuted Christians. Even though he changed the dating system in the 6th century, BC/AD wasn't widely used until the late 8th century.

It is also off by a few years at least 5 and more likely 8 years. The Days and months were also changed a few times. They also do not match the Hebrew Calender that was in use at the time of Jesus(as) and for a few centuries after.
Also even today all of the world does not use the same calender, although the Gregorian Calender(by Pope Gregory) is the most common calender in use today. But also the Jewish and Islamic calenders are widely used as is the traditional Chinese calender. Today's date all depends on what calender you are using. For me today's date is Ramadan 8, year 1432 AH for a Jew today is 8th of Av, 5771 It is a vary rare occurrence that the number of the day 8 would be the same in all three calenders.
Q: How do we know Jesus ever lived at all?
A: This can be said of anybody or anything. However, I'm sure this is often debated between the opposing factions, one hell bent to prove that He didn't and the other adding fuel to that fire by claiming He did and that He must. What is lost in all of this is the message itself. Does it matter if He existed, if the message on humanity He delivered makes sense? Likewise, does it matter if Buddha existed as long as the messages do?
