I do hear his mom gets around too…
It is possible that the Jewish nation was waiting for a couple of thousand years for a Messiah(They still are). Some of the people decided this was the time and person. The Jewish people were divided because of the way some of the priests and Pharisee’s were teaching their religion. Jesus seemed to be against them and was easy for people who were against the leaders, they found a person in Jesus to accept. Paul may have found the reason he was looking for and used that and the stories that were going around. Early Christianity was very divided Just as today.
One could ask the same question about Hitler, Constantine, Obama,Bush, or any other leader in history. It could be Just ‘Be’ Cause that is the time it happened…no special time.
Well, according to the Bahai’, every so often God sends a teacher to help raise mankind to the next level. For them, Zoraster, Moses, Buddha, Jesus, Mohammad, and their own Bahá’u’lláh, are all teachers from and of the same thing.
IOW, it was Jesus’ turn.
That’s a little too neat to be a coincidence.
You’re thinking conspiracy. I see.
Soylent Savior.
Which Jesus? I know a bunch of guys named Jesus – they are here because their parents did the nasty.
Then he came with the message of the dove / Today it would be more the fist in the glove.
The anthropological explaination is that the population of Judea was ripe for the appearance of millenial movements. The same reason, in other words, why the “Ghost Dance” movement appeared among the Native Americans when it did - a population facing seemingly insolvable threats to its very existance and identity (in the case of Judea, from Rome) will be a fertile location for the development of various political-religious movements offering a way out, whether physically or spiritually. [Certainly the Romans themselves thought Jesus was a potential threat, probably with good reason - in spite of all Jesus’ allegedly stated ambiguity on the matter in the gospels, the Romans knew appearance of would-be messiahs among subject peoples = trouble]
Interestingly, Christianity was outcompeted in Judea itself by movements dedicated to direct action (see: the Jewish Revolt, the Bar-Kockba rebellion). It caught on among the general non-Jewish Mediteranian population instead, including the Roman underclass and slave class - which was facing stress as well, in terms of loss of traditional identities and the inability to resist Rome.
Ah, you now comprehend transubstantiation! 
I got a good laugh out of it. The timing was just right.
There is no proof of the existence of Jesus the Demigod. That’s not to say that the myth can’t be traced back to one man. There may very well have been a Jewish rabbi at the time named Yeshua bar Yussuf who was a carpenter and a rabbi and who preached that we ought to get along with each other. And stories were told about what a great guy he was. And those stories got blown out of proportion like you wouldn’t believe.
With that in mind, your statement is absolutely correct.
There’s no real significance in why he appeared when he did, even assuming he wasn’t a total fabrication/amalgam/whatever. Jesus was just one of an endless number of religious nuts/rabble rousers around at that time and nowhere near one of the most popular either, barely being able to persuade a dozen people to follow him when he died. The really significant person in the story is the Ray Kroc* guy, the guy who saw the potential in the story and started the process which turned it into a global franchise. The most significant thing Jesus did was to get himself crucified, the whole fire-and-brimstoneability marketing potential of the religion stemming from that one thing.
*Ray Kroc being the guy who walked into a hambuger restaurant run by the McDonald brothers, saw the potential and turned it into a global etc.
