Christ myth theory
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Christ myth theory (also called the Jesus myth theory, Jesus Myth, and Christ Myth) in its broadest context refers to the idea that the person named Jesus referred in the Gospels is a myth. However since there are there is ambiguity in the meaning of the words myth[1][2] historical[3] and fiction[4] there is a large variance regarding how the Gospel Jesus is a myth.
