I mean if you are going from the evidence of the Bible that you cannot corroborate from other records, then both Socrates and Jesus have exactly equal evidence for their physical existence.

If it's a consistent believable story, it could be because Plato wrote it that way. It isn't a synthesis of dozens of writers drawing on thousands of oral traditions. It's a single coherent voice of a single author with a clear vision of their character.

Again. Socrates had an eyewitness, Jesus did not.
