The Bible is filled with stories just as outrageous and ridiculous as those silly tales found in children's books of the Easter Bunny, the Tooth Fairy and, of course, Ole Saint Nick. Stories the kids really believe, right! Have you ever wondered at the difference between those children's tales and Bible stories? Let's face it; both children and Christians are equally gullible in their willingness to believe. And many of those children stories are rooted in Christian doctrines, such as St. ...

Sam Henson is a bitter, cantankerous, old redneck whose world is a prison of depression and anger. It was not always so. Once, he had the love and adoration of his wife, Martha, and children.

That same key, in connection with Paul's writings, helps cull the Christian interpolations from the New Testament scriptures to expose an extraordinary story of the birth of a new religion, not the propagation of one introduced by Jesus.The Amazing Deception shows clearly and unequivocally that Paul was the creator of Christianity and was...

Most good Bibles include a 'Harmony of the Gospels' section in the appendix. Almost all churches have Bible studies that concentrate upon stubborn passages and ministers devote entire sermons to hammering at the same stubborn questions. What is the end result? Ask any Christian and he'll open his Bible and assume a defensive crouch as he assures you that the gospels do, indeed, harmonize—there are just some pieces that are 'hard to understand'. Others will claim there only appear to be con...

The early Christian Church was a chaos of contending beliefs. Some groups of Christians claimed that there was not one God but two or twelve or thirty. Some believed that the world had not been created by God but by a lesser, ignorant deity. Certain sects maintained that Jesus was human but not divine, while others said he was divine but not human. In Lost Christianities, Bart D. Ehrman offers a fascinating look at these early forms of Christianity and shows how they came to be suppressed,...
