THE INFAMOUS HISTORICAL JESUS POST

A few years ago I was on an electronic discussion list (I forget which one) that was about to go ballistic over the quest for the historical Jesus. I got to the point where I was either going to have to sign off the list or speak my piece. To the regret of many, I chose to do the latter. What I wrote has been reposted on several other lists over time. Christine Norstrand, who runs some of the most interesting religion discussion lists around, was kind enough to think it worth placing on her home page and one can access the infamous document directly at http://www.lightlink.com/xine/hysteria.html
