Why should we accept Krishna, when His character is only a myth from the Puranas, while Jesus is a historical personality?

Is there any direct photograph of Jesus? Is there any audio cassette that recorded the voice of Jesus directly? If you show the birth place and the place of crucifixion of Jesus, we will also show you the birth place, the dancing place etc., of Krishna. If you say that twelve disciples have written the preachings of Jesus, the manuscripts of those twelve disciples can be doubted by us also as manuscripts written by some others in their names. History is always believed by faith from generation to generation. If you are based only on direct perception, without inference, no history can stand before us. These remarks on other religions hurt others and lead to terrorism finally. It is immaterial whether Krishna existed or Jesus existed. You take their messages and see the unity in them. There is only one God in different forms. If you want direct perception, recognize the contemporary Human Incarnation existing in your generation by conquering the ego and jealousy. If you cannot do that, at least find unity in the religions and follow Universal Spirituality. I appreciate even conservatism, if you stick only to your path, without criticizing other religions. It is the worst projection of conservatism to criticize other religions, which is the starting point for shattering world peace.
