If there had been no Christianity, than we would now be living on distance planets. The church prevented the development of science for 500 years.
As for today, it would have been the same way as 1900 years ago.
They would think he was an uneducated, itinerant preacher, brainwashing anyone who followed him into thinking he was the Messiah. Most would not believe, just as the ancient Jews didn't, because he didn't bring about Armageddon and the end to false religion. Got that from a good program on the History Channel.
The cult that he started would be treated with disdain for bothering people in their homes and out in public.
Like the Jews of old, today's Christians refuse to acknowledge the fulfillment of prophesy about his second presence. History repeats itself.

People already doubt Christianity so much. Even when he was alive then people didn't believe he was who he said he was, so they killed him. According to scripture, that's how it was supposed to be, so you know it would be true about how people would treat him if he were here today. They would probably still doubt him even after seeing a miracle take place before their very eyes, or just say that things he did were planned, set up, or optical illusions. I know it would be cool to have him around today, but just because of how it had to be, not everyone would think so. Besides the longer he put off coming, the longer it would be that people would be dying without ever having known him, which is a sad thought.

Then the claim would be that it was staged just like the televangelists.
But that kind of claim will be a little more difficult when those prophesied prophets get their heads chopped off and a couple of days later you are able to see them whole again. Its in the bible. At the moment I don't know where but you can ask the question on the internet and somebody will give you the corrrect answer.

Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
Ecclesiastes 3:1 To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:

Perfect time, pefect place when he did come 2 thousound years ago. Anyway, who would believe it now any better? I think there would be less believers. These days so many people are out to scam you and so on. Also he had to die for our sins and eternal life. So how would he do that now?

Because then faith would mean nothing. Recall that scripture, "You believe because you have seen, but blessed are those who have not seen and yet believe" or however it goes. Besides, he did come at a good time, when there was a good network of roads so his message could spread quicker.

Christ does if His Grace is received to see.
The birth of my five children are the most miraculous events recorded in my life.
The chance of these individuals being born are millions to one. They have better odds of being struck by lightening and winning the lotto togethered, then giving me a kiss goodnight!
Praise be Jesus Christ. God is great!

If Jesus were on Earth today, he'd be in a mental hospital in about two seconds. "What, Dude? You're the son of God? Riiiight. Here, come meet my nice friends in the white coats....." People are too cynical today.

Either you believe or you don't. No amount of documentation will convert an unbeliever. They'll just find some reason why what they have seen is not true.
