If Jesus was the anti-christ would Christians still follow him?

There is a theory that the Jesus of the christian bible is in fact the anti-christ of Judaism and Islam, but that's a different theory. I'm going to run with a slightly easier one here.

Let's put it one way and say the body of Christ the man returned to earth without the spirit of god. We can say maybe he is just born again as an infant, or cloned in a Korean experiment in 1986, but either way he lacks the memory of the past but still has a sort of genetic level of trauma and instilled belief in his own superiority. That is, it's essentially like bringing back the body of Jesus who was brutally murdered, expected to come back, but didn't. Like you simply brought back the guy from the shroud of Turin after he was brutally executed but not after his resurrection. Although he doesn't come with any presence of god this time, he is still ordained by god to take over the whole world, in keeping with the book of revelation. The important thing to remember is that this is essentially the body of Christ the man on earth, while the spirit of Christ is also in heaven. He would literally be zombie jesus. He has powers and a link to divine abilities, as if by genetic coding he can still perform miracles.

It also raises some questions

1. If the anti-christ appeared on earth as a child in a very blatant and globally announced manner how would humans respond to him, with everyone knowing a one year old baby will grow up to be the anti-Christ?
2. If the anti-Christ takes over the world, then god will destroy it wouldn't he? So what's to be done?
3. Would world leaders applaud him with praise and money, or leave him to his own devices? What about regular people and non-Christians? Would the anti-Christ himself end up growing up as some sort of holy child similar to suspected future Buddhist leaders?
4. Would he be protected or hunted?
5. Would Christians want him dead or encourage him into power? (he's immortal too by the way)

I'm not asking for answers specifically here I just thought they were some interesting points worth musing over.
 
Very possible they would but in effect it would destory the Christian religion. Jesus inverted literally everything.

Also, believe it or not their is wonderful elements to Islam that I like more than Christianity. Islam is not all evil or bad bro.
 
Jesus received power from God to do the great things he did. What the hell would genetics have to do with it?
 
The premise makes absolutely no sense. There is no antichrist in either Islam or Judaism, for the simple reason that there is no Christ in them.

The anti Christ in Islam is al Dajjal and Jesus is a prophet who is supposed to return and kill al Dajjal in the end times.

Okay. I stand corrected. Sort of. The function is entirely different. Christ isn't one of the gods in Ragnarok, so to speak.

Where does the torah or quran talk about an anti-christ??? LOL Go ahead and post that. Would like to read it.
 
Religious people have the best imaginations.
 
There is no anti christ if there is one it is known as stupidity. Our planet has lots of that.
 
The concept of the anti Christ makes for fun story plots for movies and tv shows, but grown adults discussing it in any real world context is, quite frankly, moronic.
 
Jesus of Nazareth was not the Christ. It says in the bible that when the true Christ appears to the world it will be in an explosively athletic manner.
 
If Michael Jordan didn't exist would Air Jordans still be Air Jordans?
 
Odd supposition composed on the corpse of an even odder one. Like asking "what if the real life Batman was actually the Joker?"
