 I'd certainly agree with you that there was nothing supernatural about the
 ministry of Jesus.  However, your critique in its way begs the question of
 the gospels' historicity.
 
 For instance, before you claim that the miracle of turning water into wine
 at Cana was faked, you have to argue that the incident happened in the
 first place.  The general consensus of scholarship on the matter is that
 the tale was a complete fabrication.  You cannot fake an event that never
 happened at all. >>

Ed, I did not post one word relating to a/the ministry of Jesus, the post I 
presented 
portrayed Jesus as attempting to lead a revolt against the ruling class at 
that time.
The Scholarship consensus has no bearing on the given text.
Jesus refers to his father as being the power behind him, this is probably 
the reason 
for the "assumed" name of Jesus to keep his father out of the revolt in case 
something 
went wrong, I can find no "convincing" text that the Jesus in the NT was a 
preacher of
anything other than "revolt", he was a revolutionary in his time it was his 
intent to
overthrow the Romans and return the kingdom to Israel.
The balance of the additions show an amazing similarity of the "flair" of 
Saint Matthew.
And there is "some" reasons to believe that at least some of the works 
recorded 
were "setup" as a con to fool his followers. As I stated in the post it is 
quite possible
that the whole affair was a gigantic fraud. (with some additions from the pen 
of the good
Saint Matthew)
 "Something" attracted Saul (Paul) to the cause.
It is rather obvious that after taking out or placing in prison all of the 
followers of
Jesus, he then stepped in and proceeded to provide you with the Jesus you 
refer
to as the preacher/Savior.
I have been unable to unravel what/who Saul/Paul was, super cop, tax 
collector? There
are just two many different versions of what he was, and where he was from.
Following is another tidbit that shows something was a little off kilter, it 
seems
that the good savior died long before the other two. 
One might make a prophesy that if resurrected he could not walk away with two
broken legs.

TEXT
19:31 The Jews, therefore, that the bodies might not remain on the cross on 
the sabbath, since it was the preparation, (for that sabbath day was a great 
one,) asked of Pilate that their legs may be broken, and they taken away.
19:32 The soldiers, therefore, came, and of the first indeed they did break 
the legs, and of the other who was crucified with him,
19:33 and having come to Jesus, when they saw him already having been dead, 
they did not break his legs;

There are over 100,000 mistakes in the NT
not counting bad translations and
theological additions and changes.
