Ancient Confession Found: 'We Invented Jesus Christ'

quote:

---

American Biblical scholar Joseph Atwill will be appearing before the British public for the first time in London on the 19th of October to present a controversial new discovery: ancient confessions recently uncovered now prove, according to Atwill, that the New Testament was written by first-century Roman aristocrats and that they fabricated the entire story of Jesus Christ.

Just kinda stumbled over this one.
Can't find much on Joseph Atwill that isn't from his site or explicitly against him sites. Not sure how much crank is in him or not.Also can't seem to find too much about the aftermath of this announcement.
Just talk of it going on... and talk of it being ridiculous (but still... before it was presented...).Anyway, thought it was interesting. And now it is for your amusement!

From what I've seen Atwill is a crank. I'm not sure that he has much claim to be a Bible scholar either.

I see that these guys claim to be scholarly, but I am unimpressed. Seems they are also earning a living off of this drivel.Covert Messiah - 19 October 2013

Um so they found a confession or what i cant find the smoking gun and dont want to go trough the whole wall of text to find where its hiding. Il just wait for the movie to come out on The pirate bay

From what I can find (or can't find, really), and the amount of press this is getting...I would say they found a bucket full of "or what."
