You might as well look at "Swoon Theory" as well. Kinda shows why showing Jesus as a man in the new testament comes out vaguely ridiculous (in my eyes) but may be of interest to you.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swoon_hypothesis Wrote:Early proponents of this theory include German Karl Friedrich Bahrdt, who suggested in around 1780, that Jesus deliberately feigned his death, using drugs provided by the physician Luke to appear as a spiritual messiah and get Israel to abandon the idea of a political messiah. In this interpretation of the events described in the Gospels, Jesus was resuscitated by Joseph of Arimathea, with whom he shared a connection through a secret order of the Essenes—a group that appear in many of the "swoon" theories.
