Point #1 - we do not have any evidence of the Roman empire using machine guns.... that does not leave open the possibility that they did so.
There is no evidence of your godboy from the first century writers who lived at the time and presumably would have been curious about such an absurd story had they heard of it.
Point #2 - you conveniently leave out three facts. One, the decisions on what documents to retain from the Greco-Roman world were made by xtians. That they failed to do so suggests that nothing was written which pertained to the godboy or it would have been celebrated and copied.
Second - the destruction of ancient knowledge was largely carried out by ignorant xtian thugs who thought burning libraries was a great fucking idea. For you to now claim that there is little documentation left is much like the definition of chutzpah: A guy kills his parents and then asks for mercy because he is an orphan.
Third - xtian forgers and liars made attempts to write the godboy into ancient history which suggests that legitimate references did not exist at all.
Your religion is a fraud.
It seems that you are only fooling yourself with this arguement Minnie.
