Did the Roman Empire Fabricate Jesus to Control the Masses? 📜

A bible scholar from the US claims Jesus did not actually exist and the stories were used as a propaganda tool to control the masses of the Roman Empire. Joseph Atwill made his discovery while studying "War of the Jews" by Josephus. He says the biography of Jesus is constructed completely and based on the biography of a Roman Caesar. Bible Academics firmly assert that it is not true and compare the theory to a Dan Brown novel.
