Ok I don’t have such evidence in a box under my bed or anything, its just hypothetical.
I am not anti Jesus or anti- Christian, I was just wondering if people would see it as a test of their faith and how they would deal with it.

Of course I would accept 100% proof, but I doubt any historical fact can ever be proved 100%.

whether you believe or not, even it it was proved that Jesus never existed and that there were no God, the teachings of Jesus are at the very least good advice to live by.
If anyone. believers or not, would just follow the rule: do unto others as you would like done unto you, then I can gaurantee this world would be a better place.
Basically that rule is common sense, though very few of us have the desire to follow common sense. And I am not excluding Christians from that statement either, even though I happen to be one.
Here's a question I think everybody should answer:
why would you expect someone else to respect your beliefs, if you first do not respect theirs?
No one, and I mean 100% no one has the same beliefs as the next person. your beliefs are as individual as you are. It doesn't matter if you belong to the exact same religion as someone else, or you hold similar beliefs as someone else, they will ALWAYS differ either slightly or drasticall, but never 100% exactly the same.
That being said, I would still follow the teachings, as they are a benefit to everyone, even if you believe in a soul or not. What would it hurt by treating your neighbor as you would like to be treated?

Certainly a provocative question. I would, cause there is enough truth in all the scriptures to give us a keen glimpse into the ideal of spirituality and that what and which is wonderful, just, pure, and lovely. Mankind can
gain so much for the fakes...as you imply they would be. The Gospels certainly are the most enlightened thought upon the face of this earth then and all man kind could stand to pay attention.
Human know instinctively that there is more to life than what we see, touch, smell, feel or hear. they know there is a power apart from all this material existence that give their being a justification for life. I would accept it.

What kind of evidence would that be??
Jesus is a part of the history, that is not a religious thing, is a fact.
He not just appears in the gospels, there are lots of texts that mention him (read some history: Flavio Josefo, for example), even muslims accept he exist (for them is Isa)...so i don't think any evidence like that could be found. Sorry

Based on the fact that it is imposible to prove true or untrue it would not make a difference. Scientist have proven that the earth is over, way over 7,000 yrs old, people still believe that adam and Eve was created 7,000 yrs ago. So like a say, a mind is a terrible thing to waste.

Jesus did exist. Whether or not you believe he is the Son of God is one thing, but he did exist just as you exist. And if the Gospels were forged, then someone must have written them first, meaning they still existed as well.

No, because the holy Quran testify for the original Bible and for Jesus son of Mary PBUH, so you have to disprove the Quran and you can't because it proves it self as it is evidence-based and can't bed disproved.

You mean, like if some super cool UFO pilot came down and told me they were my "friend" and they weren't little green or gray freaks, but actually looked pretty human, and that the Jesus story was for some as now unknown reason, would I believe it? Ha!

No,because I believe in Jesus by faith and not by sight.He who comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him...for without faith it is impossible to please God.I was at the verge of killing a person when I knelt down & cried out to God to help me...and He did...He saved me a few months after,and I knew then that Jesus really did give His life for the world(for ME too!) and I love Him so much for loving me & showing His love for me even when I was dead in tresspasses & sins...So I will now give back my life to God,where I belong,cuz it is nothing compared to the salvation of my soul,which is precious.I know one day I will see Jesus and live with Him FOREVER...by His grace..I love You Jesus.
