Rome and Jesus in Paul

In short: Paul saw mystically the end of the Roman Empire since, proclaiming that Jesus is Kyrios, then you do not care anymore about the Empire: So, why bother?

I wonder if you could make a historicist case from this: like Paul ignored Rome, so he ignored a historical Jesus, assuming both kata sarka.

The argument does not hold because even when you assume, under minimal historicism, a Paul who deliberately ignored a historical Jesus as well as an Empire that killed him, then, even in that most extreme case Paul made clear mention to the authorities in Romans 13, showing in evicence a comparison of the apostle, however indirect, with the Empire.

Whereas about the historical Jesus not even the minimum and/or indirect hint (apart the usual leit motiv of death and resurrection).

This fact would prove that even when we recognize that Paul ignored x, if that x is not Jesus, that x has still evidence in Paul.
