For an alternate take, read Pagan Christ by Thomas Harpur ([1]), a former Anglican (Episcopalian for yanks here) priest who began to have doubts based on his own scholarly research and eventually came to the conclusion that never was such a person, but that “Christ” was essentially a personification of “christos”, a then-common divinity-within mysticism.
Fascinating stuff.
