My most recent work on popular views about Jesus is WHAT'S THE BIG DEAL ABOUT JESUS? I'd love to hear what you're up to now as well. Thanks for the discussion on my book.

I'll have to check this book out, I would love to read what they say, thanks for the review, you made it seem worthwhile to read, most christians apologies these days really suck. But times havent change since the time of Justin Martyr, and I'm sure you know what I am referring to, if you don't look it up, it's in his 3rd Apology I belive somewhere in there he made the worst apology of all christians.</p> Jesus didn't have the KJV, because he read directly from the original hebrew/aramaic lolz, so why would some1 say if it was good enough for him, he didn't even use the LXX or had the Christian Scriptures ha! just wanted to say that.
