As for Jesus of Nazareth, I believe that he existed and was one of the David Koreshes of his day. The Romans knew, of course, exactly how to deal with such individuals, and dealt with him they did, without so much as a historical footnote, and no one else of his day bothered to notice, either. A few years after Jesus' crucifixion, Pontius Pilate ordered an aqueduct to be built.

As for smart people believing in weird things, lots of examples exist for that. I was a member of Mensa for a few years; lots of nutty ideas in that group of individuals.

Indeed, Jesus was nothing in the eyes of Rome. He was the least among us.

They recognized a religious loon when they saw one; even Jesus' own family thought that he was nutty (Mark 3:21).
