Did Christianity begin with an historical Jesus or a Jesus myth? Was the original Jesus a man or a mythical savior god? Solving the Jesus Puzzle through the Christian and ancient-world record, from the Pauline epistles to the Gospels to the second century Christian apologists, from Philo to Josephus to Jewish and Hellenistic philosophy.
Christian faith evolved from a Jesus myth to an historical Jesus. New Testament scholarship needs to uncover that original evolution and rewrite the history of Western religion.

"Earl Doherty is a member of the Humanist Association of Canada, with a degree in History and Classical Languages. As a longtime researcher into the subject of Christian origins, he supports the position that no historical Jesus existed. His own contributions to that theory have been embodied in a Web-site that has gained worldwide attention, and in a recent book called The Jesus Puzzle: Did Christianity Begin with a Mythical Christ? published by Canadian Humanist Publications."
