«..and where is your evidence of any other Jesus?..»

First, in rabbinical literature, pagan, Gnostic, Mandaean, Arabic, etc .. However, the most 'generous' source in the 'restitution' of data about the historical Jesus, is the patristic literature, provided you have sufficient insight to understand behind which character (real or fictitious) the forgers fathers of the origins have hidden, from time to time, valuable data just about the historical Jesus.

A trivial example: the father of Church Irenaeus Lyone, states that the 'Gnostic church' was founded by Simon Magus. It is a blatant false, since this church (the TRUE church founded by the Nazarene! ..) was founded by Jesus and NOT by Simon Magus. The proof is that in the Gnostic texts we always refers to Jesus and NEVER to Simon Magus, although the latter was, like Jesus, one GNOSTIC, grew up together at the Gnostic school of John the Baptist. The Gnostic Church of Jesus consisted of a number of sects, or gnostic 'schools' , that Jesus had founded in various cities of the Roman Empire (and also outside its borders) in the course of his life, which lasted 66 years, and NOT 33! ..

You are not the first or even the second neo-gnostic to come through here. I wonder if you could tell me if this reexamination of gnostic ideas is popular amongst Christians, or if you and the others tend to gravitate to this forum because you get a more nuanced discussion here than you would at more orthodox Christian sites? Or some other reason? Is neo-gnosticism sweeping the fold, or is it confined to intellectuals who are more interested in history than others?
