My opinion, I don't think knowing anything more about the historical Jesus would materially alter the Promise made through the Covenant and the Resurrection......
I am much more interested in THIS substantial conversation between seculars and believing Jews and Christians: Why are seculars so blasé about the promise and necessity of eternal life? Why does it mean so little to them and do people of faith actually understand what the promise the advent of the Christ was to fulfill, even is?........

Man doesn't like leaving any questions unanswered. God is the answer for everything for which we can't yet find any other answer. That's perfect with me. What is disturbing is the image religions have created of their God. A God who insists on my not eating pork, or not cutting the hair from my temples, or not having sex before marriage, would be a crazy God indeed. People who believe in such a God are a danger to us all.
