Not too many legendary figures are regarded as historical today either. Take Robin Hood for example, William Tell, King Arthur.
Plato is regarded as a historical figure but his tale of a lost continent of Atlantis is not historical as far as we are aware.
The problem with this tale is that Paul's are the very first christian writings and he tells the tale of a resurrected exalted god, not a historical man who was recently walking around the dusty streets of down town Jerusalem.
