Religion

the incarnate God and Savior. That makes sense.

That there are no contemporaneous mentions of Jesus Christ or Yehushua or Yeshua or whatever his actual name might have been is telling. This is the man-god who promised people eternal life, raised people from the dead, and healed the sick with just some words.

You'd think someone would have noticed and jotted down notes about what he said, you know...A generation later, supposedly, some people who never actually saw this man-god did write some stuff down, but we have mere fragments of that. It all needed to be "fleshed out" by later writers, apparently.

Still, the story was such a good one, complete with a shortcut to salvation, that it became the dominant religion of part of the planet, in one way or another.

Hmm...
