if the child in rev 12 is Jesus, John would have to be an agnostic, because he completely reinvents the birth of Jesus
You mean the child who would rule with a rod of Iron (rev 12: 5)
The same one David spoke of?
Ps 2:
4 He who sits in the heavens shall laugh;
The Lord shall hold them in derision.
5 Then He shall speak to them in His wrath,
And distress them in His deep displeasure:
6 “Yet
I have [e]set My King
[f]On My holy hill of Zion.”
7 “I will declare the [
g]decree:
The
Lord has said to Me,
‘You are My Son,
Today I have begotten You.
8
Ask of Me, and I will give You
The nations for Your inheritance,
And the ends of the earth for Your possession.
9 You
shall [h]break them with a rod of iron;
You shall dash them to pieces like a potter’s vessel.’ ”

And the same one John mentioned again a few chapters later?
Rev 22: 11 Now I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse. And He who sat on him
was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and makes war. 12 His eyes
were like a flame of fire, and on His head
were many crowns. He [
e]had a name written that no one knew except Himself. 13 He
was clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and
His name is called The Word of God. 14 And the armies in heaven, clothed in [
f]fine linen, white and clean, followed Him on white horses. 15 Now out of His mouth goes a [
g]sharp sword,
that with it He should strike the nations. And He Himself will rule them with a rod of iron. He Himself treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. 16 And He has on
His robe and on His thigh a name written:
KING OF KINGS AND
LORD OF LORDS.
Yeah, This is Jesus. There is. No one else it could be!
