This book is for Christians troubled by doubts and questions. It's for those who feel remorse for losing the "Faith of Our Fathers". It's for Christians willing to consider whether or not the Bible is literally true, and historically accurate.
The author, once an ordained minister, analyzes the Jesus Story: his nativity, adolescence, ministry and resurrection. He shares with you his research on the authorship and authenticity of the gospels, as well as the earliest Christian manuscripts. He summarizes theological dissentions in the early church, three schisms that fractured the Church, and the Crusades. You will see how geological clocks of science (fossils, carbon 14 and uranium) shed light on the Biblical accounts of Creation, the Great Flood, and Noah's ark. The title of the last chatper is "Ethics Without the Supernatural".
