Skeptic’s Guide to Jesus 

Western civilization was for centuries held together by the glue of Christianity, the religion founded upon the teachings and actions of Jesus – to the extent that it may be possible to infer them from the written record. This book has grown out of the conviction that the methods of history in particular and of the sciences secondarily have not been applied forcefully enough to an investigation of Jesus. We will scrutinize this written record and see how much we actually know.
