I’d love a variation where a time traveller goes back to see Jesus and can’t find them. So they start asking around… “Jesus of Nazareth? No? Sermon on the mount? ‘Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called children of God’? Ring any bells? Come on! Raised Lazarus from the dead? Loaves and fishes?”

And in so doing, generates the Jesus myth…
There is a philip k dick short story called ‘the skull’ about a time traveler sent back in time to kill Jesus that was very interesting.
