Dead Little Fish: The Accidental History of Jesus Christ Book

Ending the Christ Myth, November 2006 Dead Little Fish is a meticulously researched exploration into the origins of Jesus Christ. It lays to rest any notions that Christ was an actual person, instead clearly showing how events from his life were adopted from pre-existing myths. Book Description Daring and controversial, author Derek Murphy re-vamps the Christ Myth theory with shocking new evidence from the traditions of astronomy, mythology, comparative religion and Christian mysticism. Tearing through the worn-out scholastic and apologetic criticisms of mythical Jesus research, Dead Little Fish relies neither on an argument from silence, nor merely on similarities between Christianity and Pagan spirituality, but provides evidence and quotes from within the Christian tradition itself which demonstrate that many early Christians refused the idea that Jesus was ever a real person. Rather than an attack on the traditional values of Christianity through debunking the historical Jesus, this remarkable book is written as a defense of the mythological Christ, and argues that the spiritual core of Christianity can be preserved, and even enhanced, by letting go of the false idea of a historical founder.Read More
