This sounds a better thread than mine.
We were told at school, if we didn't believe in Father Christmas, then we didn't believe in God jesus and the rest, and would burn in Hell. Which was nice.

There probably was a historical Jesus
But he didn't have any supernatural powers.

I doubt there was an historical one.
I don't think he's mentioned by any of the contemporary historians. I shall Google this.

The overall assumption is that yes he existed.
