In reverse order...

1) With Platon and Aristotle we only have transcripts, written much longer and after the fact. So it could easily be seen as having been constructed afterwards.

2) "People really believed in, and worshipped, Hercules. According to you that makes him real, right?" Nope. That is not even close to what I said. I described a certain incident, with certain other facts. You took it out of a context, in a ridiculous way, it is really not a very good way to argue, even on the internet.

3) I explained 'counter-thesis' above. Put forth a more likely explanation, than that Yeshua existed. And argue for it. Not just say: 'It might be, that...'. Yes, there can be other explantions. But they seem unlikely.
