This is just one of several books authored by scholars that point to the undeniable truth of the myth upon which religion has been based. After years of careful research and study, I've arrived at the conclusion that "God" is "alive" and "well" but not at all resembling the superstitious, self serving portrayal of organized religion. There are apparently many people who become atheists when they discover that there is no historical evidence for "Jesus of Nazareth" (as he is portrayed in the New Testament and upon whom a cult of enormous proportions has been created for two millennia); I am confused by this position. What does "GOD" have to do with the anthropomorphizing of its existence? We have sufficient evidence for the existence of "God", both scientific (sorry folks but Quantum Physics is opening up an enormous world of consciousness driven and shared aspects of "reality") AND anecdotal (even though not thought of as sound evidence in scientific venues, this is an important part of the sharing for which human consciousness is designed: yes, designed.) Whether or not Jesus is a historical figure has nothing to do with the ubiquitous evidence of "God's" existence. It can be extremely difficult to step around organized religion, whose authority is practically memetic; it can be downright terrifying to "tempt" the "gods" by denying a philosophy that permeates every single civilization in existence today. But it's well worth it, because what you will find (if you give it your all) is a "God" of magnificence; whatever that "God" is: it's there, it's real, and you don't have to fear it.
