A strange but curious question: if you had a time machine...

I don't consider that evidence of anything other than the lengths xianity will go to in order to push their agenda.

Scholars pretty much agree that Christians added to his text, evidently for the purpose of providing "independent evidence" of Jesus' existence, and so it is of little value in supporting the existence of Jesus. And the fact that Christians did alter the text is evidence that one needs to be suspicious of writings purporting to show that Jesus existed, since Christians have proven themselves dishonest in promoting their "holy" cause.

"A wise man ... proportions his belief to the evidence."
— David Hume, An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding, Section X, Part I.
