Product info

<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Robert M. Price, a former Evangelical Christian, examines the confusing intersection of Christianity and superstition by asking questions. Is "practicing the presence of God" actually a variety of paranoia? Is having a "personal relationship with Jesus Christ" really akin to a child playing with an imaginary friend? At what point does a religious belief become an obsessive neurosis? Price finds that the source of superstition in Christianity is the objectification of the transcendent. As a result, he argues, many of the most destructive superstitions within Christianity are inessential accretions to the faith, interfering with life-transforming piety to the glad benefit of many of Christianity's adherents. Christians who believe that an unexamined faith is not worth having will profit from struggling with <i>Jesus Christ Superstition</i>.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Carrier's best, most engaging, and readable work yet. Don't let the hilarious title fool you; this book is all business. Putting all the historical evidence for Jesus in the crucible, he burns away every apologetic argument and cuts through centuries of special pleading and pious fraud to demonstrate that the 'Real Jesus' is an unreal one." --David Fitzgerald, author of <i>Nailed and Jesus: Mything in Action</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Robert M. Price</b> is the host of the podcasts The Bible Geek and The Human Bible as well as the author of many books. He is the founder and editor of the <i>Journal of Higher Criticism</i>.
