Once you think you are right you can retrofit all sorts of nonsense to justify any holy book.
When anyone of any religion points out historical figures or real places it is till like pretending superman is real because you saw him in the movies flying around New York city.
But no, the godspels were propaganda for a real movement, not a real god. All the success of Christianity proves is the ealily gullible can be lead by the nose through succesfful marketing.
But all religions do that. It is merely the conflation of successful marketing equalling the false assumption that a superstition has any credibility.
