Octavius I know nothing about GK and would not presume to comment. It may be that his chroniclers had eye-witness reports to go on. If you insist, I will investigate.
However, it is not just the single point that you emphasise that militates against the existence of the miracle-worker Jesus, but all of those others. Also, please note that I was answering Gormless's claim that there is more evidence for Jesus than for Caesar, which is demonstrable nonsense.
I await Gormless's comment.

People are prone to cherry pick evidence for everything from religion to science.
It's human nature.
Take Herodotus, according to him it was the Greeks who invented homosexuality as "it was they who taught the Persians how to have sex with young boys", was he right?

He is a principle source for the ancient world and much of what he wrote about was many years before he was born, Arion and the dolphin real or fairy tale?

I too would like to see more people question the need to have a cow in the room of a dying relative, not because I seek to pour scorn on Hindus merely because I'd like to see the people of no faith express their disbelief evenly.
Take the Dalai Lama, when he ruled in Tibet he was a total tw@t, yet liberals speak romantically and passionately for the restoration of his theocracy.
