The Church of the Holy Sepulchre, also known as the Church of the Resurrection,
is a church in the Christian Quarter of the Old City of Jerusalem.
It is considered to be the holiest site for Christians in the world,
as it has been the most important pilgrimage site for Christianity since the 4th century.

Boy, that's a lot of stuff crammed into such a small space. I didn't realize that Christ's tomb was so close to where they say he was crucified. Actually, I found that Reza Aslan's Zealot: The Life and Times of Jesus of Nazareth makes a hell of a lot more sense.

such a small space

it seems he is attempting to rationalize the underlying hypocrisy of christianity, being either historical or spiritual, why not both?
yet his analogy resonates with me
i read a review on amazon i want to post
i want to credit you for introducing it
as christians the christ we were told to believe and the christ we come to know
they are two opposing views reflecting back onto the old testament and the old hebrew agenda
a thread that still runs through western culture thousands of years later to today
well, i can only say thank you for pointing out this academic expose
thank you
