No, "most" historians do no such thing. All we have is the "books" written by his "apostles" almost a hundred years after his supposed death, and one real historic document that mentions the name "Jesus." Do you really believe the apostles actually "wrote" those books? Because if you do, you're an idiot. His apostles were illiterate peasants who were being subjugated by the Romans. They were desperate for anyone to tell them that everything is going to perfect in the next life because their present one really, really sucked.

The one, and only, real historic account of anyone named Jesus was by Josephus. And it's like one sentence. It's also complicated by the fact the name Jesus, the Greek translastion of Yeshua (Joshua) was as common as the name John is today. Josephus references 20 different Jesus' who were alive at that period. A time period that was 100 years before Josephus wrote about.

Since you think Wikipedia is a credible source of information, try this article. Or is that one bullshit?

Most historians do agree that Jesus existed, that is just a fact.
