^fair caveats. i think there are a few too many non-mythical elements for it to be all fabrication though (similarly with krishna) - a fabrication/concsious myth would be a bit more perfect a narrative it seems to me (eg like greek god myths), whereas there are a few more messy bits in jesus' tales (and krishna to a degree). What resemblance they had to the eventual verison of the story is another thing though (seems usually about the opposite of the original is a fair rule in religions)
