This book is a definitive and complete inquiry into the authentic Jesus.
This Jesus is based on rational thinking, the simplest conjectures, and ALL of the best available sources of information. This project’s building blocks are ideas derived from the critical method of inquiry, often inspired by academic sources. The critical method is concerned with avoiding, in the case of religious writings, religious doctrine and human bias by applying a non-sectarian, reason-based approach to arrive at reasonable conclusions. As Christopher Hitchens put it: “That which can be asserted without evidence, can be dismissed without evidence.” I do not want Salt & Light to be so easily dismissed.
This work is intended to be of interest to all people of any and no religious background. I welcome both the New Testament academic and the person on the street who has never had exposure to Jesus in any form. I assume no prior knowledge of the sources about Jesus and no special training, just an open mind and common sense.
This is an important book.
I welcome all questions and interview requests. The book is available in softcover and ebook everywhere. See www.saltandlight.ca for more details.
