Scholars have poured over these historical accounts and the vast majority (according to many many source) agree that Jesus lived. In fact, most believe that he was crucified.
I am personally not concerned about whether Jesus existed. If he did, that just makes him the most famous deranged lunatic who ever died thinking he was something special.
You mention the distinction between historical and scientific fact, but history is remarkably quiet about this man's alleged ties to the creator of the universe, to say nothing of all the magic and miracles he is credited for, and science describes to us a universe in which no trace of any miracles has ever been shown to exist.
