No Meek Messiah: Christianity's Lies, Laws and Legacy Paperback - 2013

From the publisher

REVIEWS
A "wonderful book... No Meek Messiah is one of the most bracing and hard-hitting books of its kind written in recent years. Its dissection of Christianity is relentless and exhaustive: from historical, philosophical, social, cultural, and psychological perspectives, it lays bare the fallacies, deceptions, and imbecilities of Christian belief. Written in lively, non-academic prose, the book is accessible to everyone--and should be read by everyone, believers and unbelievers alike." -- S. T. Joshi, award-winning critic and author of many books including The Unbelievers: The Evolution of Modern Atheism (2011) and The Angry Right: Why Conservatives Keep Getting It Wrong (2006). "Paulkovich's stunning condemnation of the fallacious foundations of Judeo-Christian religion includes a unique year by year recounting of its atrocities and relentless annexations of territory and wealth... the lack of any real evidence for Jesus, human or divine, and its obvious plagiarism of earlier Mithraic legends for Christmas and Easter. Paulkovich's work combines rigorous scholarly research with wry humor and wit and will attract scholars and serious students as well as non-experts in search of an authentic and readable history of the period. I am confident that No Meek Messiah will become a leading source for all interested in the history of religion. - Eric A. Stone, PhD, author of the forthcoming "Atheism: The Struggle and the Promise. "Drop everything you are doing and order Michael Paulkovich's NO MEEK MESSIAH, a book which treats the Christian biblical literature, the Bible among them, as a well documented set of lies, laws and a despicable legacy of non-events bloodied with unspeakable cruelty. Even Jesus Christ may not have existed nor was he crucified if he existed. Much of the accounts in the Bible (all versions) never took place and the number of contradictions they contain deploy confused messages they purports to convey. It will take perhaps another hundred years before the full truth of the Christian era emerges as the dominant early history of the development of what we call Civilization. This book is a great step in that rational direction." -- Dr. Elie A. Shneour (The Malnourished Mind).
" * * * The vast majority have not read their Bible. Many think they have; they are exposed to certain parts on Sundays, even being dedicated attendees of weekly Bible Study. But most are completely unaware, for instance, that the New Testament traces the parenthood of Jesus to mythical Adam and Eve. According to the anonymous author of Luke, a mere seventy-five generations separate "Adam"-and the beginning of the universe-from the birth of Jesus some 2,000 years ago. Devout churchgoers are certainly not taught of the racist, violent, immoral, and juvenile beliefs of Jesus. How many true Christians are aware Jesus refused to heal non-Hebrews; that the NT praises genocide; and that Jesus accused people of thought crimes? Most Christians think that only the Old Testament condones killing of disobedient children, strangely unaware that Jesus agrees with this immoral parenting perspective. The "virgin mother" claim in the Bible was simply ancient pre-Christian forgery. Christianity is demonstrably mostly a gaggle of plagiarisms gathered from many prior myths.Christian monks burned books for centuries, and most popes forbade reading books-including the Bible. Tens of millions of innocent men, women, and children were murdered by Christians, all in the name of saintly Jesus. And Jesus was no wise teacher, no meek messiah. http: //nomeekmessiah.com
