Did Jesus want to create a poli-theism religion?

[Jehanne]

You stated, "It’s a literary criticism, not an historic one."  All the canonical Gospels, along with the Gospel of Thomas, are historical documents, in that they contain historical truths about Jesus of Nazareth, a human being.  The mid 2nd-century non-canonical Gospels are literary documents, in that they do not contain historical information about Jesus.

‘Criticism’ and ‘conclusion’ are not the same word. That’s why they’re spelled differently.

I would disagree. In conducting historical criticism one is also drawing historical conclusions.
