    If you ask Mormon historians whether the particular figures in the Book of Mormon exist, they mostly all agree too. Perhaps a better metric is the number of secular historians who consider Jesus to be a historical figure. Or suppose that he is a historical figure, how many things can you say about him that are definitely true?

      These ARE secular historians the Wikipedia article is referring to. As you say, any Christian ones would be too biased to be reliable.
