  3. Review “ We have become convinced that the story of Jesus is not the biography of a historical Messiah, but a myth based on perennial Pagan stories”. - Timothy Freke & Peter Gandy

  4. Review “ The Gospel stories are no more historical than the Genesis creation accounts are scientific. They are filled with exaggerations, miracles, and admitted propaganda”. - Dan Barker , atheist
