It exists.  People believed it, and still believe it, in one form or another for centuries.  It's a theological context.

I know.

It's called entertaining their argument and going along with it to come up with a different conclusion.

Their, referring to modern Christian apologists.

Note by the way there are quite a number of secular New Testament who have nevertheless done their own reconstructions of the history of the time surrounding Jesus' death and resurrection based on events described in the Gospels, especially Mark. Notable examples include, as you know, Bart Ehrman abd also James Tabor (whose view on this strongly aligns with mine).

Believe me when I say I've done my reading, even if not as elaborate as yours.
