But it’s all about feelings ...who cares if it’s accurate.

His argument is basically that Jesus of Nazareth was a political agitator against Roman rule and that the Gospels were written to hide this "fact."

In reality, there is zero evidence of any kind to suggest that He was engaged in a political struggle.

The entire book begins with the assumption - based on nothing - that the Gospels must be the opposite of what He really was.

The book says nothing that has not been said one thousand times before.

It does not rise to the level of boring.

The left would really love to eliminate Christianity and replace it with a bloodthirsty culture of headchopping and rape of women.

The fact that the writes is Muslim ,
is an OBVIOUS OVERSIGHT by the media.

Sorta like Zimmerman not being Jewish, but later determined
to be a new catagory of "Hispanic/ white" by the 'New World Media'

Muslims believe that Jesus was just an ordinary prophet, and that if he were alive today he’d be a Muslim. They say the bible was corrupted and reports the events incorrectly. They especially attribute this to Paul, who they say is a liar. This is because the Bible and the Koran are conflicting texts, and one of them must be wrong. Therefore it has to be the Bible, right?

Wouldn’t a devout Muslim actually be offended by this? They claim Jesus is a profit to them, and supposedly the no. 2 prophet, and he is supposed to return to earth and break the cross. Couldn’t Muslims go all Satanic Verses on him for besmirching their faith? He better watch out, he could be the target of a fatwa.

This is correct, unless you insist on rejecting all historical accounts of the period. The Jews of the 60s fought and terrorized each other more than they did the Romans.

There are four chapters in the Bible that tell me all I need to know about Jesus.

I long for this day, For the Scriptures say, “’As surely as I live,’ says the LORD, every knee will bend to me, and every tongue will confess and give praise to God.’”

Roman 14:11

Please, LORD, just come quickly!

Oh, wait minute...
