The historical Jesus was many things but he was not the Christian god preached to us for centuries. The Christ Conundrum re-examines the evidence from the Gospels, the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Apocrypha, to reconstruct the life and times of Jesus. This line of thought allows us to identify Jesus" and his mission as they really were and the results are sure to surprise. Jesus was a wandering Rabbi with a political agenda, a faith healer and exorcist; and Jesus believed that the end of the world would come within the lifetime of his disciples (just look at what he says in Matthew 16:28). By closely scrutinizing the evidence we can see plenty of oddities. For example, Jesus seems to have a brother called James who appears as the leader of the emerging Christian movement after Jesus" crucifixion. In the New Testament he even outranks the apostle Paul. Yet James" has been quietly erased from history. Why? Read the Christ Conundrum to answer this and many other questions. Read this if you are an atheist or skeptic looking for ammunition against your Christian friends. Read it if you want to know the truth.
