173,95 kr. "What if we have been missing a whole stage of how the canonical gospels came to be? What if there were a whole raft of prior Jesus narratives, the fragmentary vestiges of which now appear in Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John? This would explain why these gospels seem over-crowded with incompatible understandings of Jesus ("Christologies")? In The Gospels Behind the Gospels, biblical scholar Robert M. Price attempts to reassemble the puzzle pieces, disclosing several earlier gospels of communities who imagined Jesus as the predicted return of the prophet Elijah, the Samaritan Taheb (a second Moses), a resurrected John the Baptist, a theophany of Yahweh, a Gnostic Revealer, a Zealot revolutionary, etc. As these various sects shrank and collapsed, their remaining followers would have come together, just as modern churches and denominations seek to survive by merging and consolidating. Our canonical gospels might be the result. Similarly, Price explores the possibility that Paul, Apollos, Cephas, and Christ were originally figureheads of rival sects who eventually merged in much the same way. You will never read the gospels the same way again!"--

173,95 kr. Horrors and Heresies is the second fiction collection by Mythos Mogul Robert M. Price. "The Savage Sword of Jehu" and "The Son of Jehovah versus the Cyclops" appear in print for the first time here. "The Parchment Chase" is a Lovecraftian version of the TV show The Paper Chase, set in the Miskatonic Divinity School. All the stories have some sort of religious connection, mostly of a pretty darn unorthodox character. Price's extensive religious studies background enables him to create authentic-sounding heresies and blasphemies. Here you will find forbidden texts from imaginary scriptures, twisted versions of classic biblical stories from both Old and New Testaments, a "hidden" episode from Lovecraft's The Case of Charles Dexter Ward, and an adventure of the late, great Christopher Hitchens modeled upon "The Call of Cthulhu." Is it blatant Political Incorrectness you want? You'll find plenty in "The Caliphate of Cthulhu." A couple of these stories first appeared in Secular Humanist mags including American Rationalist (did you know S.T. Joshi was AR's final editor?) and Free Inquiry, not usually the homes of weird fiction. Still another appeared in the late, lamented evangelical humor magazine, The Wittenburg Door.

193,95 kr. These fascinating articles and lectures by Paul Tillich have never been reprinted from their original publications over half a century ago. They shed much light on Tillich's own thinking as well as that of Luther and Calvin, Bultmann, Kierkegaard, and others. He explores the nature of religious symbols, Christian Socialism, and the doctrine of Jesus Christ. Students and clergy brought up on today's thin theological gruel will be amazed at what they have missed!

- How New Testament Scholars Created the Ecumenical Golem
168,95 kr. Was Jesus a mainstream or sectarian Jew, as the scholarly consensus tells us? This view-that we must automatically adopt Second Temple Judaism as the paradigm in which to interpret or reconstruct the historical Jesus-is often presented as self-evident, unquestionable, and beyond dispute. However, the promotion of the Jewish Jesus raises serious questions-specifically, whether this consensus is the product of theological and ecumenical agendas. In Judaizing Jesus , noted scholar Robert M. Price challenges this trend and offers a menu of alternative ways of seeing Jesus: Sacred King, Cynic Philosopher, Gnostic Redeemer, and... the Buddha! He concludes by proposing a new theory of Christian origins to explain how and why the first Christians themselves Judaized Jesus.

168,95 kr. 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 Jesus Christ Superstition.
