I think the only historical narrative supportable by the evidence (without having a pre-existing axe to grind about what the conclusion can or cannot be) is that Jesus was crucified by the romans and that he came back to life. Obviously normal people can’t do that.
Faith is a gift, it’s not something we can create for ourselves or claim responsibility for. We can only pray to God to give us faith and I believe He will always grant it!

This is not what most historians think. You live in a bubble.

Without faith, why would I pray? Without faith, how would I pray? Without faith, which god should I pray to? Yours? Isn't that a little rich to suggest?
We share a lot of views, you and me. We both don't believe in Thor, Odin, Zeus, Poseidon, Ra, Osiris, Shiva, and number of other gods. Why are you so stuck on the Catholic one?
