The Origins of Christianity and the Quest for the Historical Jesus Christ truthbeknown.com Although this debate may not be evident from publications readily found in popular bookstores1, when one examines this issue closely, one will find a tremendous volume of literature that demonstrates, logically and intelligently, time and again that Jesus Christ is a mythological character along the same lines as the Greek, Roman, Egyptian, Sumerian, Phoenician, Indian or other godmen, who are all presently accepted as myths rather than historical figures2. Delving deeply into this large body of work, one uncovers evidence that the Jesus character is based upon much older myths and heroes from around the globe. One discovers that this story is not, therefore, a historical representation of a Jewish rebel carpenter who had physical incarnation in the Levant 2,000 years ago. In other words, it has been demonstrated continually for centuries that this character, Jesus Christ, was invented and did not depict a real person who was either the "son of God" or was "evemeristically" made into a superhuman by enthusiastic followers3 like Moses , and like Noah , like Abraham , and Adam ....and more "etectera's" than I care to type here . You can't live without those fables can you ? But if it makes you feel humble and "free"...suppose it does no harm. Except I see no humility in you .<G>

<<Jimmy crack corn ... what does that mean???>> It means you folks in Canada should start drilling for oil, and spend less time damning people to hell. No offense intended to our good neighbors to the north who haven't gone off their rockers. <VBG>
