Yes, I do suspect that Jesus is misquoted and His actions inaccurately recorded, at least in some cases. If the canon had been chosen differently, a very different picture would have been given.

So...how do we know Jesus wasn't just a looney or a rebel rabbi?

It is more likely that the stories grew and transformed. Lewis's famous "Liar, Lunatic, or Lord" is a false trichotomy.
