    No... Wtf? I mean, yeah, the Gospels contradict each other, and stuff, but depending on the sect and in general therms, Jesus was never a normal man, only in the most gnostic of the gospels, Mark, which is the first one (historically) may interpret this thing, but the religious consensus is that Jesus is divine, not just a prophet like Moses, even if Jesus said that if Moses wasn't real, he was for nothing. Spoiler:Moses never existed.

      Back when I was in Catholic indoctrination school, I was taught that Jesus was both completely god while also being completely a normal man. This is of course ridiculous, but Christians thought it made sense because muh god.

        This one, even if was real, is nearly completely nonexistent in christianity.

        To know more about supposed human Jesus, i would suggest reading about the essene sect rather than christian sources, since judean preachers of early I century were heavily influenced by that sect. In next two generations they went much more radical which ended in the bloodbath of uprising.
