From bart Ehrman, yes jesus was a historical person a apocalyptic preacher.
And your bases is that the gospels are eyewitness accounts which they are not.

Should not, Because there is no independently verified evidence that a miracle worker called jesus ever existed at best there was a apocalyptic preacher who was killed by the Romans.

Bible-based versus Biblical
by Vanderhoven7 injehovah’s witnesses continue to say their religion is completely bible-based as if this proves they are the one true religion.. gilles gray writes:.
jehovah’s witnesses have a hard time understanding/accepting that the mere fact their teachings are ‘bible-based’ doesn’t establish that those teachings are true/biblical.. the most obvious, simple logic highlights their misconception….
jehovah’s witnesses and their organisation have a long history of untrue and failed bible teachings.. for example, the watchtower once claimed that:-.

The estimated 45000 denominations of Christianity continue to say their religion is completely bible based (biblical)as if this proves they are the one true religion.
They all can't be right but they all can be wrong.

Cult or high control group it's seems to be getting harder to differentiate between the two terms, I think that jws have morphed from a cult to a modern day high control group.
Any group that uses physiological manipulation and coercive control to tell people how they dress and groom themselves ,who they can associate with and who they can talk too and what they can read and watch and what they have to believe in etc is a high control group,

Me too ,she was abusive and controlling, looking back it began when we started going out together but being brought up a jw you were never made aware of the red flags in relationships.
The divorce process was hellish she made it as difficult as possible, she was still a jw during the divorce and to make things even worse she alienated my kids I have not seen then in over 6 years. What a Christian personality.
One positive thing it educated me regarding physiological manipulation and coercive control and I saw these tactics being used by religions to control their followers, so I escaped both .

How Did Watchtower Sell the "Jonadab" Concept ?
by Sea Breeze insimply put; gullible people were told if they chose life on earth instead of heaven, they wouldn't have to die.
that's how they sold it.

But religious fundamentalism—which refers to the belief in the absolute authority of a religious text or leaders—is almost never good for an individual. This is primarily because fundamentalism discourages any logical reasoning or scientific evidence that challenges its scripture, making it inherently maladaptive.
So I will end the conversation here .

Since you choose to present ZERO evidence for your worldview, isn't it possible that the same taking snake that deceived our first mother has deceived you .
NO I'm being honest unlike yourself who make statements that are untrue and based on myths, I have given you how you can get answers to your questions by doing independent research into the subject by referring to experts in each particular field. Or are you scared to do research because deep down you know that your beliefs are based on myths and lies.
