Butters

Arjan:
There were other claims. Jesus was not the only messiah running around trying to get rid of the Romans in those days.

...

Also worth noting -- Jesus was of the line of David.

Two-fer!  ;)

Might as well, this dead thread has been resurrected more times than Jesus.

Via two completely different family trees which makes it quite likely that both are invented. We can make a nice family tree that links Butters to Jesus and Maria Magdalena, the favorite woman for this purpose. Or Jesus brother James if you want to. No problem.

If they were inventing stuff, they'd have simply deleted one of the inventions to keep the story straight. It is real history that doesn't make sense.

Mary Magdalen doesn't get the 'woman of loose morals' shtick until the Middle Ages, so no.

Jesus' 4 brothers, and unknown number of sisters (minimum 2) are a serious option though.

 Grandsons of Jesus' brother Judas were taken to Rome by the Emperor Domitian, and then sent home.

 Eusebius of Caesarea's Ecclesiastical History records family members (referred to as Desposyni) as still being around when he was writing in the 4thC AD. Given how breeding works, we're probably all descended from them by now.
