...conspiracy theories? Interesting? Fascinating article by James Hannam, one of most interesting "debunkers" I've encountered:
http://jameshannam.com/christmyth.htm
The article is adapted from the Introduction he wrote for the book Shattering the Christ Myth (2008), edited by J. P. Holding. The book provides detailed rebuttals of many of the conspiracy theories that purport to show that Jesus of Nazareth did not exist. This article compares the Christ Myth to the theory that Shakespeare did not write his own plays, before examining the various authors who have tried to sell the idea that Jesus never lived.
Of course, R&S is a place where many have no intention of learning through exposure to contrary ideas. But for those interested in the topic and actually read the article, I would like to know what you think. Feedback?
