Age of Reason Publications The Jesus Puzzle

Did Christianity begin with a mythical Christ? Was the original Jesus a man or a mythical savior god? Solving the Jesus Puzzle through the Christian and ancient-world record, from the Pauline epistles to the Gospels to the second century Christian apologists, from Philo to Josephus to Jewish and Hellenistic philosophy.
Christian faith evolved from a Jesus myth to an historical Jesus. New Testament scholarship needs to uncover that original evolution and rewrite the history of Western religion.

THE JESUS PUZZLE - The Book Challenging the Existence of an Historical Jesus

IS JESUS A MYTHICAL FIGURE?

*Did early Christians like Paul believe in an entirely spiritual Son of God, and was the Gospel Jesus of Nazareth a later fictional character and faith symbol? *

Every religion throughout history has developed a mythology about what is supposed to have happened at its beginning, and in most cases it’s just that—mythology. Find out why Christianity’s longstanding view of its origin in an historical Jesus is also a myth, and why the history of western religion needs to be rewritten.
