To believe that there never was any historical figure named Jesus, one would really have to ask why Paul was running all around the Empire proselytizing and writing letters to any church/synagogue that he could.
So much effort.
Without a historical Jesus, Paul is an even more interesting figure in history. What were his motives
if there was no Jesus (or was he duped?) ? Why were there enough trouble some Christians already by c. 35 AD that Paul was ordered to arrest them? Why did Paul convert?
Paul must have been a hell of a well-networked man. He seemed to have really had some good connections in Rome.
