In summary, the “events” in question include not just the purported miracle but all the expectations around it and its place within a larger historical narrative. Look, if I peep through a time-space wormhole lens and go back the wedding at Canaan and see Jesus slipping dye and everclear into the wine, then of course I would feel deceived. Any normal thinking person would. Personally, I would probably give up on Jesus and turn to a more abstract neo-Platonic philosophy.
