So then the NT is a description of what contemporary people believed to be true with respects to Jesus' life and claims. Why would they believe it to be true if in fact it was not? Many would be eyewitnesses or had access to eyewitnesses.

Many people believed the earth was flat and that illness was caused by demons and curses.  Why did they believe that to be true?

C'mon Steve, you're smarter than this.
