Josephus' 'testimony' has been shown, even by Catholic researchers, to contain interpolations and later additions, inserted at a later date (standard early Christian practise). All the supposed 'eye-witness' testimonies have been shown to be false by experts. See http://www.jesusneverexisted.com/josephus-etal.html
But Christos will believe. They have to believe. If it falls flat on its face (it has already actually, but pious believers refuse to see it) it blows their religion's central point out the window, making a dodo out of the circa 1800+ year killing machine that is Christianity.
See http://www.jesusneverexisted.com/ (although the site imagines that Islam wasn't as bad as Christianity - it wasn't to the west but it was to the east. It also imagines Islam was more 'civilised' - but the civilisation was all plagiarised from India and Greece.)
The very few good things Jesus (one of the many called Messiah and Christ at the time, also one of the many Jesuses) allegedly said, have turned out to be statements uttered by philosophers and religious books before Jesus. Word for word plagiarism in many cases. Those plagiarised philosophers, however, didn't give rise to a murderous intolerant religion. Hence, Jesus ought to be overlooked altogether.
