When he was executed for being a public annoyance, his followers removed his body from the tomb and made everyone believe he resurrected and went to heaven.
Sounds a bit conspiracy theoryist to me.
Imho, it makes more sense to think the miracles were made up somehow and never actually happened than to think they were all staged in some sort of elaborate hoax.
Furthermore Jesus' disciples willingly died horrible deaths for Him. I don't see them having done so if they thought he was a fraud.
Didn't the Heavens Gate followers suffer the same fate? I could name others. It's not that special.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
