If you are not familiar with the historicism versus mythicism debate, you probably wouldn’t appreciate this book quite as much. I’ve been reading both sides of these issues since the about 2002, and have been in numerous conversations about the issues. The author’s intent is clear — to write a “definitive” summary of the subject so that no (obvious) page is left unturned. If you were to get to know the content of this book well, you could probably debate either side of the issue. The historicism side, in my view, is best represented by Bart Ehrman, an ex-Christian but one who still holds strongly that there was indeed an actual person you could have found with the proverbial time machine if you went back 2,000 years or so ago. He was on the Sam Harris podcast recently and his only two arguments for Jesus’ historicity were (a) no “serious” scholar denies Jesus’ historicity, and (b) there is evidence outside the Bible, such as in Josephus, that confirms his existence. That’s it! There’s no “secret” to the historicism argument that you are going to find elsewhere and the author adequately deals (at length) with all the arguments that I have personally encountered on the subject. He also deals at length with all of the mythicism arguments that I’ve encountered, and quite a few more that I never encountered. He seems to want to leave no stone unturned so that the other side can’t say, “Well, there is a lot of evidence that he refused to consider.” He writes like a man on a mission and I applaud him for the effort.If you are waffling about whether to delve into the subject, I would offer to you that none of the information is weird, esoteric, or in need of huge leaps of faith. It’s not like a book, say, about Jesus in India training as a yogi. This is all Bible 101 stuff, but asking the hard questions and pointing out some disturbing, but non-controversial, flaws in the story.My only gripe would be — I don’t like the $6.66 price tag just because it seems so antagonistic. Some sincere Christians might forego buying the book simply because the price is offensive or makes them feel like they are doing something evil just by looking at it (they will already feel guilty enough even though 99% of their pastors, professors, etc... are familiar with the subject — it is truly Christianity’s “best kept secret” because it contains career-ending information that would get you fired from the pulpit or the classroom just for considering some of the obvious facts out loud).Two other book recommendations: the author’s Vol. 1 on Mormonism is excellent. I felt like a veritable expert on the subject after reading it. It’s also a good read before the Jesus series because it shows you, incontrovertibly, how a religion can be made up from whole cloth and STILL have adherents willing to die for it in a few short years. Second, Jesus Christ Sun of God by David Fideler. It goes into more detail about the use of Gematria by Mark and the other evangelists, which the Mything in Action series can only touch upon.The author ends the three notes with the acknowledgment that, even though these books have many chapters and ideas, they only scratch the surface on the subject. He also humbly acknowledges that he may be wrong and would be willing to change if (by some crazy miracle) evidence became available to prove (with even a mild amount of probability) that there was a historical Jesus in Palestine 2000 years ago. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Final volume. As good as the other two *by J***S on Reviewed in the United States on May 21, 2018* 5 stars.In this last volume of Jesus: Mything in Action, David Fitzgerald takes us back in time to investigate the historical events responsible for the origin of the myth of Jesus Christ; the humble origins of Christianity, its chronological and geographical growth, and the reasons why Orthodoxy (later known as Catholicism) won the battle for minds, politics and culture against other competing sects to become the official religion of the Roman Empire during the 4th century.The book starts by taking the reader in an imaginary journey back to the first third of the first century CE only to find no spectacular preacher under the name of Jesus of Nazareth and to realize that none of the people of Galilee by then know anything about his existence, lest about the sermons, sayings, miracles and deeds attributed to him in the New Testament. That discovery triggers an eight hundred years investigative journey starting on the 4th century BCE when Jerusalem -so far dominated by the Persian empire- capitulates to Alexander the Great during his six years conquer of the empire of Darius III of Persia, then to the revolution of the Maccabees against the Seleucid Empire in 167 BCE; the first Roman Jewish war and the destruction of the temple of Jerusalem in 70 CE; the cosmic Jesus postulated by Paul in his epistles, the diffusion of the legend of a terrenal Jesus via the first gospel (i.e. the Gospel according to Mark wrote shortly after the destruction of the temple, most likely by 73-74 CE) and its plot created deliberately to give the appearance of a fulfillment of the prophecies of the Old Testament; the evolution of the humble Jesus depicted by the author(s) of Mark to the more spiritual and miraculous Jesus of Matthew, Luke, Acts and Hebrews, to end with the Super Jesus of John; the alteration, adulteration, doctoring, suppression and addition to the original texts (letters, gospels, historical references, etc) made by the early christians, many of them Fathers of the Church; the battle of the Orthodox doctrines against the dozens of competing Christian sects in the first three centuries of the Common Era; the creation of the New Testament as a reaction to the first exercise of compilation of ancient Christian writings by the apostate Marcion of Sinope; and finally the Edict of Milan which was the formal recognition of Christianism as a valid and free religion under the Roman Empire by Emperor Constantine the Great, whom, nonetheless, never abandoned his pagan religion including his offerings and sacrifices to Sol Invictus and who died being considered a god by his people and by himself. The main conclusion of Jesus: Mything in Action (astonishing for most of the people) is that what we know as Christianism can be explained without an existent historical Jesus.A must read for anyone interested in a scientific-skeptical analysis of the historicity of Jesus and of the history of Chistianism. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Carrier ...
