Was Jesus influenced by Hinduism and Vedas? THow will Christian Conservatives takes this theory?
Since Christian Conservatists believe Jesus never visited India since the Gospels doesn't say he did, and he died on the cross, they would laugh at the theory.

The historians of those days are a witness to the fact that no one died on the cross within such a short time, but normally were left to suffer for many days

Exactly why the Roman soldier had to proof that Jesus WAS dead by sticking a spear through his side tille water and blood flow out.

Thomas was the twin brother of Christ (Dictionary of Bible by Hastings, Vol IV, 753, also John 20:24)

"Thomas" means "twin" but does not mean he was Jesus' twin. John.20v24 does not say he was Jesus' twin either.
Some of Jesus' disciples reached India as he commanded them to spread the Gospel to all people. I suppose people started all these farfetched theories on the basis of this fact.
