Not only Christians, but many people from many different religions know the truth. Even some of the the non-religious know the truth, but don't speak it. The truth couldn't be revealed to mankind for obvious reasons. Someone would harm this Man. The truth is clear as day to me.

Indeed, you already asserted that "many people" are aware of the supposed incarnation of a popular deity. Apparently this assertion is based on your personal intuition. As long as that's the case, there's no reason to give it any further consideration. I suppose it could be an opportunity to impersonate a philosophaster. . . 

At this point in writing my post I considered whether "you're talking through your hat" could be considered a civil phrase. Could be, but leans toward uncivil. Once thinking about the phrase I delved into its etymology (of course I did). As with so many English/American idioms, the origins aren't clear. However, early examples in print appear to already carry the basic concept.

I'll say this--if the central premises were congruent with reality, then it would be wise to be concerned for personal safety. If.

As one story goes, even the embodiment of a deity is not immune to physical harm. Since it's a story yours aligns with, the paranoia logically follows.

Still, despite the requirement that the truth couldn't be revealed to mankind, we happy atheists are being given a glimpse of it. I'll ask again: why?

I don't know what to tell you. Many people will live and die not knowing the truth. I shared the truth. You can do what you want with it.

Greenblaze thank you for the information about yourself. I do respect you as a human being and I also respect that you are a firm believer.  Some time ago we had a contributing member who was also highly educated about Christianity.  She lives in a country that would have her drawn and quartered should she practiced her faith openly. She had our profound respect and admiration.

I and some of my HAF peers have been persuaded, in part, by credentialed writers like Hector Avalos, professor of theology at Iowa State university.  His book: The End Of Bible Study is persuasive.   

Another fascinating book is by a British researcher named Selina O'Grady.  It explores the history of religion as practiced as a political and economic expedient.  It is a book that is written outside the perspective of belief or non belief. The title: And Man Created God. A history of the world at the time of Jesus.
