Aslan ( How to Win a Cosmic War: God, Globalization and the End of the War on Terror, 2009, etc.) has made the study of religion his life’s work, and it shows. In fact, most of the incidents in them are pure fiction. The Gospels are not historical documents, nor even eyewitness accounts of Jesus’ life. ![]() Jesus of Nazareth is not the same as Jesus Christ. A well-researched, readable biography of Jesus of Nazareth. ![]()
