For all the back and forth on this the only true way to know if Jesus lived is by the Holy Ghost telling you, don't you remember this stuff from primary. I have rejected this method because the bastard won't stop going on about building a mall.
I reject out of hand any argument that would state that a person can be both historical and supernatural. I don't believe Jesus Christ, Harry Potter, or Superman ever existed. However I would be doing myself a huge disservice if I didn't acknowledge that all three have had a big influence in my life and the people around me. It just doesn't matter to me if the Jesus of the New Testament is based on a real person or not he is of huge cultural and historical significance.
As a side note, the worst fictional story is one where the hero is based on some other hero in some other bad fictional story.
Just wanted to get in on the fun.
