At the end of the day Buckers you can't prove there wasn't a Jesus anymore than a Catholic can prove there was, the only thing we can be sure of is that no one will ever really know whether religion is legit or not.
That's why there's so much conflict about religion, no one can prove anything that they believe in, and that goes the same for Aethism, you dis-believers have nothing to convince the believers that they're wrong, it's just whatever you personally believe
But I don't claim to believe there wasn't a Jesus, I claim to not know and claim that if there was he no was more or less likely to be Son of God than I am*. You believe it because you've were taught it as fact from a young age. If you were taught from pre-school age that the Moon was made of cheese and had it drummed into from a daily basis you'd believe that too.
*OK, I'll let you in on a secret. I'm not the Son of God
