I was raised a catholic...I saw the hypocrites in my family and they turned me off to religion.

I say show me the money...I saw his interviews on several shows. He studied all religions and he wrote a book on Jesus. He may be right about Paul, or the later Christians in the 300 ADs...Jesus never left any writings....It is said he wrote on sand.

Who knows.

The best story of Jesus' life is in the book of Urantia. It is huge and a little weird but the very Lengthy story on Jesus was awesome.
