Would Jesus get many followers this day?

Asked by rebbel (35549points) August 23rd, 2010

Let’s assume for a moment that Jesus has never walked the face of the Earth and also there have never been major world religions since.
So, in this scenario, most inhabitants of the world don’t have churches to attend or gods to believe in.
Lets just say that people believe in something, like in reality also people now do.
Then a person, Jesus-like, emerges.
This person is wise, peaceful, has an appealing and comforting message about how we, as a peoples from this world, could act and behave in order to live really happily together.
On top of that, this person is extremely charismatic.

Would people follow this person (like once Jesus was followed) now, in this day and age?
Would you, in this day and age?
