i don't have the text out in front of me ATM, but i seem to recall it goes something like this...
"Jesus of Nazareth, who happened to be the Lord and the Son of God, was executed by Pilate for causing a motherf$cking ruckus.
I'll have to find my copy of antiquities, but i seem to recall that he verifies a person named Jesus being killed by the romans for treason. the add-ons are pretty glaring...
