That's not what happened though. The Gospels were written by men that witnessed Jesus life first hand, or in the case of Luke (a medical physician of the time, and at least initially, a skeptic), on commission from a Roman general to investigate it. I would also be a little sceptical if what you are saying was actually the case. I'm not arguing for or against the existence of God, so let's not try to take the discussion in that direction, it's completely pointless. As an aside, the current bibles are translated directly from these original documents, so a broken telephone is the least of my concerns. Flippantly explaining away the resurrection is much harder to do when looked at purely evidentially and applying correct literally criticism to the available documents.
