Description
Jesus, the central figure of Christianity, was allegedly created by a Roman emperor. Joseph Atwill's book "Caesar's Messiah" explores this theory, examining the historical writings of Flavius Josephus and the New Testament Gospels. The author argues that the Romans directed the writing of both, with the aim of promoting a "peaceful Messiah" as an alternative to revolutionary leaders threatening Rome.
