J.P. Holding of Tektonics apologetic ministry has edited (and substantially written) a new book providing a detailed rebuttal of the Christ Myth in its various guises. I have written an introduction to the book which compares the Christ Myth to the theory that Shakespeare didn't write the works of Shakespeare. I also offer a brief resume of the historiography of the Christ Myth going back to its nineteenth century origins.
This book should now, I believe, be the standard reference for anyone wanting to find a response to the various internet and published mythologists. You can get it from Amazon.com or Amazon.co.uk. However, best of all would be if you order a copy from your local store and demand to know why they aren't stocking it.
No reviews yet, but do please let me know if you see any.

ReplyDeleteI think the title is a poor choice. If someone knew nothing else about the book, they might think it's claiming "Jesus was a myth" when it's just the opposite.
ReplyDeleteQuite the opposite, I would say.
ReplyDeleteShattering a myth is not precisely the same as establishing or confirming one - last I checked.
Ordered it on the day it was released, BTW.
