The Kak,
Paul's writings are some of the best proofs for an historical Jesus.
While it true that Paul never met Jesus physically (I'll set aside his experience on the road to Damascus for now), it is also true that Paul/Saul WAS going around the country side persecuting followers of Jesus before his conversion.
So we have the questions:
1) Why would there be followers of a man that didn't exist?
2) Why would a Jewish authority (which Saul was) go around persecuting them instead of saying, "Hey, this guy didn't exist!!"
It just doesn't sound right.
It is much more likely that Jesus was a real person.
What else He might be is up to you to figure out.
