Jesus - Buddhist Fact And Christian Fable: 2000 Years Of Misinterpretation

Dr Paul Foster re-examines the accepted tenets of Christianity to ask challenging new questions. He presents important evidence about the ways in which the bible, and other religious texts have been translated and analysed. He argues that damaging mistakes have been made, leading to inherent schisms and dogma now widely associated with organised religion. Foster puts forward a case for reviewing Christianity by analysing the words and deeds of Christ, using surviving fragments of original scripture. Much of it he counters corresponds with Buddhist teaching. By examining Christianity in the light of Buddhism, a new and wholly positive spiritual enlightenment becomes possible - and is available to anyone truly committed to achieving it. This book is a thorough and intelligent theological discussion which will benefit both the scholar and the general reader.
