This diversity of opinion, itself, lends credibility to the christ myth..which is not there there was never a person or many people that the details of each of the individual jesi could have been cribbed from..but that the preexistent christ myth is the reason that anyone would have ever done that in the first place.
The notion is that they started with a story, and added human detail to make it compelling to their various audiences. Polemics and parables, not news reports. The mythmaking continues to this very day.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
