Where Jesus never walked Just outside the ancient city of Hippos-Sussita – barely a mile from the Sea of Galilee – a large bronze mask of the god Pan came to light in November 2014. It is dated 1st/2nd century AD. Evidence of a vibrant paganism. But of Jesus and the Christians – no evidence! Pure thoughts!

JNE – The Tragic Fabrication of a Saviour of Mankind Book Reviews Jesus threatens torture to his unforgiving slaves







"The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a king who wished to settle accounts with his slaves … The lord released a slave and forgave his debt. But that same slave threw his fellow slave into prison. In anger his lord handed him over to be tortured until he would pay his entire debt. So my heavenly Father will also do to every one of you, if you do not forgive your brother or sister from your heart." – Matthew 18.23-35 Prophet of the Lord says Jews are Canaanites!

"Thus says the Lord God to Jerusalem: Your origin and your birth are of the land of the Canaanites; your father was an Amorite and your mother a Hittite."



– Ezekiel 16.3 Jews are Canaanites – the Bible says so! "Don't let your dinner spoil!" We all love the "blood and sex" story of Salome's saucy dance before Herod Antipas and the head of John the Baptist turning up on a platter. History? John was imprisoned at the frontier fortress of Machaerus, whereas Antipas would have had his dinner party at his palace in Tiberias – 80 miles away. Sending for a take away head would have taken several days – rather longer than the interlude between the main course and the dessert! Crucifix? – No, a Roman victory Tropaeum (2nd/3rd century, Limes Museum, Aalen, Germany).

In a Roman Triumph, captured weaponry would be mounted on a vertical stake or stauros, with a cross-member added to support shields, swords, etc. Long before Christianity emerged from the shadows, such a "crucifix" would be carried along the Sacred Way to the Forum. Risen or risible?

Matthew, Luke and John copied from Mark, who listened to Peter, who heard from Mary, who was told by an angel. How's that for "eye-witness" testimony?! God, a being of simple and bloody tastes





"One night while Moses was in camp, Jehovah was about to kill him.



But Zipporah [his wife] circumcised her son with a flint knife ... So Jehovah did not harm Moses. Zipporah said, 'You are a bridegroom of blood'." – Exodus 4.24-26. Faking the evidence Ultraviolet light reveals that a manuscript of Tacitus has been overwritten, an original "e" of chrestianos (the good) replaced by an "i" to read christianos (the Christians),
