I agree that the Roman Empire corrupted the original message if Jesus.

This same process is also unfolding by Saudi rulers and ISIS with Islam.

However, I only had good experiences in following the message of Jesus written the Gospel.

He is an historical figure documented by Roman historians and therefore he existed historically as well as julius Caesar or cleopatra.

You may or may not believe that Jesus is the son of God or that it was not born on 25th December, but if you will open one of the four gospels you will find pearls of wisdom that could help you live a better and happier life.
