Men aren't flat but they are more dense than freshwater. Jesus wasn't really a man or somebody wasn't telling the truth. maybe godmen float, i'm no expert on this though.
edit: according to the bible, faith in Jesus has been observed to reduce your density.
Jesus is a symbol for the sun.
The sun's reflection is seen floating on top the water on its surface. Therefore, the story of Jesus walking on water.
Jesus has 12 disciples, the 12 signs of the Zodiac, as he moves through the year.
His birthday is Dec 25, the day the sun is born and the days from that point forward get longer and longer, until the day of the Spring's equinox, when the light triumphs over the dark. That's when Jesus began his ministry.
The sun died for three days, the day on Winter Solstice when the night is the longest in the year. It rose again to become stronger and bring new life to the planet, resurrecting from the death of winter.
His birth was heralded by a visit from the "three kings" on Orion's belt in the night's sky. They travel through the night sky, following the north star. The three kings point in the direction of the Polaris to the point where the sun rises on the morning of Dec 25.
Hope this explains things.
