Why do you ask that question on HN of all forums?
Yes, personally I believe He was real, and all that implies. The whole story is too complicated and fantastic to be fictional.

I feel you should read some nice science fiction.. Azimov is a good start. His stories are both much more complicated as well as fantastic than bible.

I have read a LOT of sci-fi, including loads of Asimov.
None of his characters are proven historical characters like Jesus. What most people find hard to believe is his claim to be God, his death, resurrection, ascension etc. I'm saying that I do believe those. Saying that all of that is fiction... I really find that hard to believe.
That said, although many would love a long discussion / argument about it here. For personal reasons I am not going to say more here today than I already have.
Why not tie them together? :)
