As I explained you also don't accept what CNN's Reza Aslan is saying as well as myriads of other scholars meaning there is no single "Jesus of History." Albert Schweitzer, in his From Reimarus to Wrede: A History of Research on the Life of Jesus, was already discovering that every scholar claiming to have uncovered the 'real' Jesus seemed to have found a mirror instead. Investigators found Jesus to be a placeholder for whatever values they themselves held dear.

I mean even scholars are able to delude themselves. You should take a look a topic I opened some months ago in which a medieval historian claims how there was a real historical King Arthur but he wasn't called Arthur, he certainly wasn't a king, he didn't live in Camelot and Avalon around round table, he didn't have a shiny armor because he lived in earlier period, he didn't have twelve knights and Merlin (to which she says were all made up)... I mean what is the point of "historical" king Arthur if he didn't do any of those things? You can practically make any fictional character "real" if you go like that, I mean take He-Man: He-Man was based on Conan the Barbarian, who was based on Greek son of god Hercules and did Hercules really exist? Well, he did, but he wasn't called Hercules and he was not son of a god and he did not have superhuman strength and he did not meet Atlas and held heavens, he certainly did not kill Hydra, but rather there was some guy in ancient Greece who was very strong and brave. So some guy existed on which Hercules was based on and then Conan was based on Hercules and then He-Man was created on Conan so ditto He-Man existed.
