I think the mushroom cult idea is far more interesting than some failed Messiah getting executed.

Maybe they'd given up on the idea of getting a human Messiah who would drive the Romans out of Judea and decided they'd rather have a supernatural one instead. You can't fail with a Messiah who refuses to stay dead.

All those beliefs about loving one's neighbour etc. went out of the window when the Roman faction got into power, though.
