"Virtually all scholars agree that a Jewish man named Jesus of Nazareth did exist in Palestine in the 1st century CE.[1][7][8][note 1] Scholars regard the question of historicity as generally settled in scholarship in the early 20th century."

    Something being considered settled doesn't really prove anything. Many thing have been considered settled and been totally wrong. If they're settling it with insufficient evidence, then I don't really care to believe it. If it requires a leap of faith instead of logic, then it isn't good enough in my opinion. I'll continue not having a belief in him existing or not.
