The Pagan Christ: Is Blind Faith Killing Christianity? Harpur TomPaperback
For forty years and in nine previous books, scholar and religious commentator Tom Harpur has challenged church orthodoxy and guided thousands of readers on subjects as controversial as the true nature of Christ and life after death. What he has discovered will have a profound effect on the way we think about religion.Long before the advent of Jesus Christ, the Egyptians and other peoples believed in the coming of a messiah, a madonna and her child, a virgin birth, and the incarnation of the spirit in flesh. Now, in his most radical and groundbreaking work, Harpur digs deep into the origins of Christianity.
What began as a universal belief system based on myth and allegory became instead, in the third and fourth centuries A.D., a ritualistic institution The early Christian church accepted these ancient truths as the very tenets of Christianity but disavowed their origins.
