True, though those were all centuries after the events they "believe", if there was an observable event at all. Christians believe an actual guy was the Son of God, who they physically knew around 30 AD. He died, yet they continued to believe and die for the guy who claimed he was immortal. Why would they do that?

They didn't claim he was immortal under about 300 years after he died.  Council of Nicea.  They voted on his divinity.  Scripture that called him holy was kelp, scripture that didn't was tossed.

No, no, no, no, no. 

Sorry.

There is nothing factually true about that statement though.  Paul's letters claiming divinity were written, like, a decade after Christ died and that claimed divinity. And they referenced creeds (that are still used today) that talked about his divinity. This "theory" that was spread by the Dan Brown novel (movie) is not based in fact.

(Sorry to go on a rant. But anyone - scientists and archaeologists included - who look at the facts of this do not agree with it).
