If Jesus had been born in North America would he be called a shaman instead of messiah?

Would anyone even know he had ever lived?

    Well Jesus was not born anywhere as there is zero historical evidence he ever lived. We know of many historians who lived at the time of Christ and in the same area but none of them mention Jesus. Even the new testament was not written during the time of Jesus.

    were native americans looking for messiahs? in jesus's time there were multiple people working miracles and claiming to be the son of God, some actually died for this just like Jesus. The messiah would have had to be born unto abrahams decendents because its what the whole old testament is a lead up to: the messiah coming.

    Well at the time of Jesus i'm not sure how inhabited North America was if it was inhabited at all. He wouldn't have been called a shaman even if Native Americans were there because Shamans were healers who used medicinal plants and herbs not true power of God.

    There would be no north america without Jesus. Our country was founded on the bible=Basic Instruction before leaving earth. B.I.B.L.E.

    I think Jesus' message was basically polemic, so we probably wouldn't have heard of him.
