The new testament is a repackaged version of the old testament, which in itself is a repackaged version of many other, older religions and belief systems.
The story of "christ" in the latest reboot, the Bible, is an allegory for the sun.
Bro, I just called out the alchemists. OP is all about getting the timing wrong, and I just explained that falling for that trick is just as bad research as accepting the pastor or priest uncritically. The reality is that the sun is an allegory of Christ.
So did you find the real God or are you still searching.

This is actually a very profound statement and I think any disagreement about who christ was would be semantics.

I did. I truly did.
And western religion only scratches the surface then misdirects into a collection plate. There are eastern religions that are paths to him, but they aren't the only paths.

OK, now we're talking. I'm talking about a Jewish guy who died by getting hung out on a stake by the human government on charges of opposing it, about 33 CE. He said he and the Father-Creator of All were one, and he accepted being called God and receiving the worship due only to God. Either he was right (and thus he made the sun to reflect himself), or he was wrong (and thus deserved worse than he got). I have some respect for eastern paths but there is only one goal a path to God can lead to if there is only one God: there is no both-and about inherent contradictions. But you're still not spinning me your own fairy tales (perhaps you think I'm not open-minded).
If I don't link up fast I still hope to return to the subject this Good Friday.
I think that Jesus tapped into the universal truth and was killed for teaching what he learned. It's likely that he learned the universal truth during his time spent in India, and his pure, stripped down message of love everyone, be in servitude and remember God was a threat to organized "religions" (businesses) of the time.
I believe Jesus the man may have really existed. I think the collection of stories about him is just that: stories. Most passed down through word of mouth complete with errors and varying degrees of hyperbole. That doesn't mean they are all completely made up or that Jesus didn't exist though.
I think there have been many people who have achieved a "christ consciousness" of sorts throughout our history though. In most recent memory, Dr. Richard Alpert, or "Ram Dass" is one example. His guru, Neem Karoli Baba, another.
I believe the story of christ to be spliced in with the much older story of sun "worship" (acknowledgement?), with Easter being an allegory for spring, and new life rising up.
