If you choose to use parables as the bible, then you will have those who believe Jesus stood by the river bank and pulled countless fish from his lunch bag and fed the masses. It was an easy trick. I've done it myself. You secrete your catch in a huge container of water which you bury under the sand. The next step is to utilize a false bottom in your lunch bucket. The rest can be done either with an assistant down below or with a telescopic pick. The Great Randi caught me doing this once, and effectively finished my career as a Messiah. A few miracles always give undue credibility to a new religion, and it is the best way to get the values and tenets of your new religion accepted without even the pretense of thought. Unfortunately, I wasted my great magic on small fish; someone else will need to perform the actual miracles. (Still a serious topic. Just taking a stress break) :) Obviously, I am not suggesting this was where Jesus got the extra fish. Only that considering his choices, he was perhaps unimaginative. Something exotic (and normally available only from another country) would have been nice, as well as impressive...
