between the ages of 14-29 little is known abt him and the theory is that he was was a dalai lama like figure and that monks took him to Tibet and taught him the scriptures (when they one lama dies they decide on the next one). he then returned and was of course crucified but apparently went back to the east (and not to sit at the right hand side of god or whatever that was) so no ressurection you all!!!
This theory started taking shape when a russian in the 19th century translated some of the historical manuscripts from that time (he published it in a book called 'the secret life of jesus christ').
A lot of what jesus said was shown to be consistent with a lot of buddhist teachings.
this board has gone bonkers and I hope i did a good job adding to it.

Isn't this because most religions just boil down to "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you"?

A Platitude for Mondays
O Harry, is there anything anywhere worse than Mondays? We hate everybody, we hate our jobs, we hate having to show up and spend another endless week with those vile monsters at work, and we just don't know what to do, except look forward to the next Consolation, and please keep it coming.
Destroy: anyone with no sense of humor. Which pretty much is everyone.

The idea of an account of someone's life covering all the details is a very new one (the whole concept of "biography" as something exhaustive, tracking someone's life from beginning to end and taking more than one volume if more than one volume's worth of information is available, only goes back a hundred years or so, although there may be isolated examples of it older than that). Ancient accounts cover what people did -- birth narratives like Jesus's are customarily added after death to add a mythic dimension to the person. Having a large block of time unaccounted for is standard; there is no more reason to think Jesus went anywhere significant -- or ever left Galilee -- in those blank years, much less encountered Buddhism or whatever other Eastern religion is fashionable to equate him with, than we do that Paul did. Or Socrates. Or Shoeless Joe Jackson.

mary magdalene (sp?) skull is in France (she went there after he died) but the grave/coffin is in kashmir.
the other theory is that jesus loved mary and went to france to live with her but since it was occupied by the romans that could be unlikely.
''Wait - how did Jesus go back east and die a natural death if he was crucified?''
and how did he turn water into wine?
I'm not saying he didn't have these superpowers. what I am saying is that he did live his natural life here on earth.
