We capitalize His name as a show of respect whether we believe Him to be a god or not.

His real name was Yeshua, he lived from 4 BCE to 34 CE, he hung out with some local fisherman, practised an austere, simple form of Judaism, argued with Temple officials, and was arrested for sedition against the Roman Empire and executed by the Romans. Later some of his followers passed their stories on to a radical Jew named Saul who turned the whole thing into a new cult and money making racket. Saul argued with the original followers of Yeshua and left spreading his new cult through Asia Minor and Greece. Later the original followers all got killed when the Romans destroyed Jerusalem in the year 70 leaving only Saul's cult to carry on the teachings of Yeshua. After Saul's death, the teaching became even more corrupted, all the details got lost, some believers made up some stories based on fragmentary tales passed down and the whole thing got blown way out of proportion.

There is no written documents stating his existence before his death, or concerning his Crucifixion.
All information about Jesus was written down 80 to 100yrs after his alleged Crucifixion.
If he did exist then he would have been Jewish.
He may have been a Jewish gnostic mystic.
He had brothers(James the just) being the only known brother,
Yet if he did exist or not, his legend has certainly changed the world, if not entirely our way of thinking or actions.

Jesus loves you, Christians, Muslims and everyone else He created. He died in absolute agony, after being tortured and crucified, so that we would be forgiven for all our sins. We have to ask for forgiveness though if we want it. His message basically is for us to love one another. He loved us so much that he died for us as a sacrifice-His blood covering our sins. If someone gives up their life for another person then I would say that is the greatest act of love one can perform.

He was an agent of the Roman Empire, sent to divert revolutionary sentiment into harmless self-improvement. Jesus stepped on toes when he attacked the religious hierarchy, who were flunkies of Rome. Because few people listened to his touchy-feely gibberish, he was a failure at pacifying the Jews, who continued to revolt against Roman imperialism. So the Romans got rid of him.

The only true religion according to God is the one that is of the Bible and we must accept Him as our personal saviour. There is no other way to go. He waked this earth, and lived a sinless life, and was our example in all things. He was crucified upon the cross for all our sins, and the gift of salvation is free. But keeping it is conditional. we must love God enough to obey Him, or we dont truly love Him at all. we must repent of our sins, and turn from them. no other way, thru Jesus. gift is free. but keeping it is conditional. that part is ours. If we all lived and acted and thought like Jesus, there would be no sin, no awful. just like heaven will be. peace beyond understanding. love forever, no pain, no sorrow, no disease.. NO MORE TEARS. why would anyone choose to miss out on that? But, fact is God says we accept Jesus or we dont go We cant say we didnt make a choice. Cuz, if we dont choose Jesus, we automatically serve the devil that has told us not to accept Jesus. no other way but Jesus. Choose Him today..... and lead others to choose Him too.

if you have any facts about Jesus then send them in with a self adressed stamp and we will send you a free kaftan and a week in a kibbutzz . Any facts - you must be joking,. the christian faith has spent two thousand years getting its dates wrong and arguing that he didnt have a full blown relationship with a prostitutre . Why does jesus dissapeas from the bilical register for 14 years and turn up in ethiopia , as a follower of their faith , be strong and choose your own path , dont leave it up to some out of date , probably black african of dubiously buddhist faith to let you decide. NB I do not believe
