Yes there are plenty who want to spread lies about Jesus, many who claim to be Jesus, many who claim be so and so much, and this has happened since his message first spread throughout the world, and his message spread rapidly after his death and ascencion, throughout Europe, Asia, and Africa. There were those back then just as there are today, who saw how powerful and well received his message was and distorted it for their own profiteering or other foolish reasons. Yet the truth of Jesus remains; many distant Christian cultures who were divided for centuries and were reunited later were found to share the same common and undeniable Christian beliefs.
