From GUESTAR282:
"And it isn't merely the breadth of the silence concerning Jesus in his day, it is the depth to which that silence reaches. By saying no one of his time or the generation after him wrote of him, we're talking Claudius, Livy, Tacitus, Suetonius, Philo, Josephus, Pliny, Seneca and so on. That's a pretty damning silence concerning someone for whom the entire earth supposedly went dark upon his death (because Christ is the sun as I said before) because that little episode isn't mentioned by any of them. In fact, almost nothing about Jesus other than the religious beliefs current at that time were mentioned by these men."

Tacitus, Book 15 Chapter 44 (at least in my Oxford edition) mentions Christ by name and says he was executed by Pontius Pilate during the reign of Tiberius.
"auctor nominis eius Christus Tiberio imperitante per procuratorem Pontium Pilatum supplicio adfectus erat;"

He also refers to Christianity as a superstition. Living human candles screaming in agony at banquets? Would put a kink in my evening.
