Which is why in Klingon Mythology the Klingons sleep their gods as they were more trouble than what they were worth.

We killed out gods. And replaced them with this weird, jesus-like figure named Kahless who unified our entire planet after a devilish tyrant named Molor working for our equivalent of Satan and demons took it over and ran a dictatorship and when Kahless died he went to rule our heaven and Molor our hell? Klingon religion man, it's confusing.

Canonically Kahless did at least exist (whether or not he was divine is not answered). Very similar to Jesus lol

there is no evidence that jesus existed and the first writing about jesus appears 100 years after he supposedly died. his original story was eventually replaced with a plagiarized version from mithraism; so jesus = mithra. not that there is any evidence that mithra existed either.

I believe the academic consensus is he likely (>50% probability) existed, but it is for sure disputed by some. Personally I'm not religious and I accept the possibility he existed or maybe he didn't. Kind of doesn't really matter because we can be fairly confident he wasn't the son of god lol

the problem being that there isn't any evidence at all. if there was, his existence would be harder to dispute lol.
