In 1771, Constantin Volney decoded the the etymology of Jesus from Bacchus (the Greek version of Osiris) as
follows:
“Volney has shown that Yes was one of the names of Bacchus, which, with the Latin termination, is
nothing else than Yesus, or Jesus.”
— Robert Taylor (1829), The Diegesis (pg. 186)
In 1817, Napoleon Bonaparte put forward his reasoned opinion that Jesus never existed:
“I have dictated thirty pages on the world’s three religions; and I have read the Bible. My own mind is made
up. I do not think Jesus Christ ever existed.”
In 1912, American church historian Shirley Case, in her The Historicity of Jesus, attempted to refute the
contention that Jesus never existed. [1]
In 2014, Richard Carrier, in his On the Historicity of Jesus: Why We Might Have Reason to Doubt, wherein he
describes himself as a “marginally renowned atheist”, attempts to argue that Jesus as an historical figure never
existed, but rather the figure of Jesus is a mythical aggregate, or something along these lines. [2]

“The original Hebrew-Aramaic name of Jesus is yeshu‘a, which is short for yehōshu‘a (Joshua) [compare:
Joshua 10:13], just as Mike is short for Michael. The name yeshu‘a occurs 27 times in the Hebrew
Scriptures, primarily referring to the high priest after the Babylonian exile, called both yehōshu‘a (see, e.g.,
Zechariah 3:3) and, more frequently, yeshu‘a (see, e.g., Ezra 3:2). So, Yeshua’s name was not unusual; in
fact, as many as five different men had that name in the Old Testament. And this is how that name came to
be “Jesus” in English: Simply stated, this is the etymological history of the name Jesus: Hebrew/Aramaic
yeshu‘a became Greek Iēsous, then Latin Iesus, passing into German and then, ultimately, into English, as
Jesus.”

Ha. No, actually he didn't. That quote is from a PROTESTANT POLEMIC against the pope to make a point.
Do your research people. Wow.
